  • Key Concepts: 
    Package hierarchy is a feature of the SAP package tools component (BC-DWB-TOO-PAK) that allows users to organize their packages into a hierarchical structure. This structure can be used to group related packages together, making it easier to manage and maintain them. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the package hierarchy feature, users must first create a package and assign it to a parent package. This parent package can then be used as the root of the hierarchy, with other packages being assigned as children of the parent package. The hierarchy can be as deep or as shallow as needed, allowing users to create a structure that best suits their needs. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a package hierarchy, it is important to consider how the packages will be used in the future. For example, if a package is likely to be used by multiple users, it may be beneficial to create a separate parent package for each user so that they can easily access their own packages.
