HierStrucID and HierUnitid

The system uses the following values to define the hierarchy structure:

Hierarchy Value Definition

HierStrucId (HSID)

The enterprise and each zone only have one HierStrucID. A location and revenue has a HierStrucID for its default node and for each time it is added to a zone.

ParentHierStrucId (PHSID)

The HierStrucId of the node above this one.

HierUnitId (HUID)

A unique value assigned to each node. All nodes have one HierUnitId.
The following diagram shows the hierarchy of the aforementioned values:

Figure - Hierarchy Structure Values


This diagram shows the hierarchy structure using the values mentioned in the table above.

Note:

A location or revenue can have multiple HierStrucIds, but the HierUnitId remains the same, regardless of how you navigated to the location or RVC. As a result of multiple HierStrucIds existing for an entity, the C&C API utilizes the HierUnitId when interacting with definitions.
