Documentation

Definition

IF you use a prefix in the context of set hierarchy generation, you can identify the hierarchy nodes more easily by inserting a string (8 characters max.) at the beginning of each node ID, or at the beginning of the top node ID only.

Use

If the option General Set Hierarchy is set, the prefix is mandatory and must start with "4B". In this case, all nodes of the hierarchy are affected by the prefix, including the top node.

If you select Commitment Item Group Hierarchy or Funds Center Group Hierarchy, no prefix is required. If a prefix is provided, it will then only concern the name of the top node.
