2. Under Selection select Entity type.
3. Choose Display (or Change).
4. Choose Utilities ® Inverse hierarchy in the screen Display (or Change) Entity Type: Definition. The screen Inverse Hierarchy: Entity Type ENTITY TYPE NAME appears.
The Inverse Hierarchy: Entity Type ENTITY TYPE NAME screen shows the data model from which you branched to the inverse hierarchy as the root. Below this, the “next highest” level is displayed, that is, the data model(s) that are directly above the entity type. Therefore, the “higher” an object is in the hierarchy, the “lower” it is shown here.
