Hierarchies in Data 360 Reports improve data exploration and reporting efficiency. By
structuring related data fields, hierarchies save you from manually selecting each field and
help you find answers faster.

With dimension hierarchies, you drill down or roll up through hierarchical levels directly in
your reports. For example, a sales dataset includes dimensions like Product Category, Product
Subcategories, and Product Name. Date fields also have an implicit hierarchy, so you can drill
down from year to quarter, quarter to month, and month to day.
Keep these considerations in mind when working with hierarchies.
- Dimension hierarchies are available only in Data 360 reports built on semantic data
models.
- For sorting, levels in the hierarchy act as independent fields.
- In charts based on these reports, dimension hierarchy fields behave like standard fields.
You can't drill down or roll up through the hierarchical levels directly in the chart.
- Add Dimensional Hierarchies to Data 360 Reports
Explore data across different levels of granularity by using dimension hierarchy in your Data 360 reports. Drill down or roll up your data structure to uncover the exact insights you need.
