Use

In this IMG activity, you define hierarchical groupings of columns and column groups.

If you group columns and column groups hierarchically, when you choose a column group, the system displays the columns and column groups that are below it in the hierarchy as well.

You can use this function, for example, to display a column in a particular context in addition to the columns of an already defined column group.

Note:

Note that SAP provides a customer view here. The entries in the standard delivery are in the view V_TWPC_HIERATP (Hierarchical Column Groups).

If you want to overwrite entries from the standard delivery, you must use the same key as in the standard for each of your customer entries, and change the remaining entries.

Example 1:

You assign the column groups XYLARAYTP2 and XYLARRAYTP4 to the column group XYLARRAYTP3.

If a manager chooses the columns in the column group XYLARRAYTP3, the system automatically displays the columns in the column groups XYLARAYTP2 and XYLARRAYTP4 as well.

Example 2:

In a particular context you want to add a column to an existing column group. To do that, you define a column and a new column group, to which you assign the column. This is done in the IMG activities Define Columns and Define Column Groups. Then, in the current IMG activity, you add the column group to the hierarchy. Do that by assigning the newly created column group to the column group in which you want the system to display the additional column.

For further information, see the IMG activity documentation under Define Columns and Define Column Groups.
