Upgrade Hierarchies

Upgrade Hierarchies

When you copy relationships in Hierarchy Manager and create them as hierarchy relationships, you might copy a relationship loop and create a hierarchy with a relationship loop at the root business entity. However,
Data Director
cannot display hierarchies for records with data loops at the root business entity level.
For example, in the Organization hierarchy, a relationship loop exists from the Organization root business entity to the Organization root business entity. Then in Data Director, if a data loop exists from the Informatica record to the Informatica record,
Data Director
cannot display the hierarchy for the Informatica record.
Before you upgrade, review your relationships in Hierarchy Manager to ensure that you do not have relationship loops from one business entity to the same business entity. If you have relationship loops in Hierarchy Manager, after you upgrade, you might have to restructure your relationships.
Workarounds:
  • Add another business entity as the root business entity in the hierarchy model.
  • Create the relationship as a network relationship instead.
For more information about upgrading hierarchies, see the
Multidomain MDM Upgrade Guide
