Organizing data into hierarchies is essential to manage large volumes of that data in any organization. Typically, companies have numerous applications to define and manage different types of hierarchical relationships, depending on the data involved. For example, a company might have a human resources (HR) application that provides the ability to define organizational hierarchies for personnel data, which include employees, managers, and groups. That same company might also have a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application to define and create sales territories by geographical type. In some cases, companies might have a third application, such as an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application, to define a company’s product hierarchies.

Hierarchy Manager enables you to bring disparate company hierarchies together into one product. Bringing company hierarchies together highlights and simplifies the relationships between those hierarchies across the organization.
