Good morning,

Sometime you have a table with son, parent and pieces.

You need for product A the materials B, C and D.

For B you have tot have the materials E and F, for D G, H and I.

The table would be like this:

A - B - 1

A - C - 2

A - D - 2

B - E - 4

B - F - 1

D - G - 2

D - H - 3

D - I - 2

Now the question is, what do you need for product A.

4x E

1x F

2x C

4x G

6x H

4x I

I have build up the example of the german manual with some changes. See attached file.

Regards

vicky

Hi Vicky,

Thanks for quick response..

I am attaching a sheet with my doubts.

Now can you tell me how to build hierarchy for this simple example .The example you gave is quite complex to understand.

Hi,

I hope, this is better for your understanding.

Your table is the pivot table on the right side. If you have your data in this form like your table in the word-doc, you don't need the hierachry in the script.

The hierarchy you need, if yor table looks like the first inline-table, where only the direct neigbours are one row, for example DL - Stationary. The next row is Stationary - Marker, the next one is Stationary - Pen, the next one is Stationary - Notepad, and so on.
