  Key Concepts: 
  The hierarchy repository is a component of the Business Navigator (BC-CUS-TOL-NAV) in SAP. It is a database that stores hierarchical data, such as organizational structures, product hierarchies, and cost centers. This data is used to create reports and analyze business processes. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The hierarchy repository can be accessed through the Business Navigator. Once in the repository, users can create, edit, and delete hierarchies. They can also assign values to nodes in the hierarchy and create reports based on the data stored in the repository. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a hierarchy in the repository, it is important to ensure that all nodes are properly linked together. This will ensure that the data stored in the repository is accurate and up-to-date. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any changes made to the hierarchy so that reports generated from the repository are accurate. 
  
  Related Information:

The BI component allows users to create reports based on data stored in the hierarchy repository. Additionally, the Business Navigator also includes components such as the Data Warehouse (DWH) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) components which can be used to further analyze data stored in the hierarchy repository.
