Creating an Account Hierarchy After Initial Data Load Example

Creating an Account Hierarchy After Initial Data Load Example

You want to create a hierarchy with four levels after the initial data load.
The following figure shows the completed hierarchy for the example:
A four-level hierarchy with 12 nodes.
Load all your records into
CC360
. Do not populate the parent account values. After you load the records into
CC360
, the records are not part of a hierarchy and the records do not have relationships.
The following figure shows the lack of hierarchy structure among the records at this point in the process:
12 stand alone nodes.
After you load the records, use an external tool such as Informatica Cloud Services to populate the parent account values. First update the parent account value for the nodes in the second hierarchy level. You do not need to update the parent account value for the root node because the root node does not have a parent. The parent account value for the root node remains null. The following table shows the parent account values to populate when you update the values for hierarchy level 2:
Node ID
Parent Account value
002
001
003
001
004
001
005
001
006
001
007
001
The following figure shows the hierarchy structure at this point in the process:
A hierarchy showing the first and second hierarchy levels.
After you update the values for hierarchy level 2, update the values for hierarchy level 3. The following table shows the parent account values to populate when you update the values for hierarchy level 3:
Node ID
Parent Account value
008
005
009
005
010
005
The following figure shows the hierarchy structure at this point in the process:
A hierarchy showing the first, second, and third hierarchy levels.
After you update the values for hierarchy level 3, update the values for the root node in hierarchy level 4. The following table shows the parent account value to populate when you update the values for hierarchy level 4:
Node ID
Parent Account value
011
010
012
010
The hierarchy is complete. The following figure shows the completed hierarchy:
A four-level hierarchy with 12 nodes.
