Description
Customer hierarchies represent complex customer structures in the system and are used for the
organizational structures of buying groups or chains of retail outlets, for example.
A customer hierarchy consists of individual hierarchy nodes which are allocated hierarchically to each
other on different levels to produce lower-level and higher-level nodes. The structure of the customer
hierarchy can be kept flexible and adapt to change at any time by means of the option to move
hierarchy nodes dynamically.
In transaction VDH1N, you can maintain the customer hierarchy. Below shows the customer No. 8 is
assigned to customer no. 7.
When creating a sales order against customer id 8, the partner function Customer Hierarchy is
automatically determined from above hierarchy structure.
Configuration

ranges.
