• Key Concepts: 
  Personalization hierarchy is a feature of the SAP General Application Functions (CA-GTF) component that allows users to customize their SAP system according to their individual preferences. It enables users to create and manage multiple hierarchies of personalization settings, which can be applied to different areas of the system. This allows users to tailor their SAP experience to their specific needs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the personalization hierarchy feature, users must first create a hierarchy of personalization settings. This can be done by selecting the “Personalization Hierarchy” option from the SAP menu. From there, users can create and manage multiple hierarchies of personalization settings. Once a hierarchy is created, it can be applied to different areas of the system, such as user profiles, authorization objects, and more. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a personalization hierarchy, it is important to consider how the different levels of personalization will interact with each other. For example, if one level of personalization is set to allow access to certain features, but another level is set to deny access, then the user will not be able to access those features. It is also important to consider how changes in one level of personalization will affect other levels.
