Editing Portfolio Hierarchies - SAP Documentation

Defining and Changing Portfolio Hierarchies

In the Implementation Guide (IMG) choose the following path, depending on which component you are using:
- For SAP Banking choose SAP Banking SEM Banking Common Settings for Market Risk and ALM Views and Portfolio Hierarchies Define Portfolio Hierarchy.
- Financial Supply Chain Management Treasury and Risk Management Basic Analyzer Settings Define Portfolio Hierarchy .
  
  If you are using your system as a productive system, then you can access this transaction from the SAP Easy Access screen under the respective components by choosing Evaluation Control Portfolio Hierarchy Define.
Define the portfolio hierarchy as follows:
1. Choose New Entries . The system displays the table in which you define the portfolio hierarchy.
2. Choose the view upon which the portfolio hierarchy is to be based (not relevant for TRM).
3. Enter a three-digit number, a name, and a short and long description for the portfolio hierarchy.
4. If required you can enter an authorization group.
5. Choose Save.
Define the structure of the portfolio hierarchy as follows:
1. Select the portfolio hierarchy .
2. Choose Structure .
3. Choose New Entries . The system displays the table in which you edit the characteristics.
4. In the Characteristic column choose the required characteristics from the view.
5. In the Sort column, use numbers, which do not have to be sequential, to define the order of the characteristics. The lowest number means the highest level of the hierarchy.
6. If required, in the CHie (characteristic hierarchy) column you can choose a characteristic hierarchy .
7. In the Cat . (category) column, specify whether the characteristic hierarchy is to be used selectively, or not selectively.
8. Choose Save.

If you want to change the portfolio hierarchy at a later point in time, then you need to repeat Steps 1 and 3a through 3h.

If, in the meantime, evaluation data has been generated based on the portfolio hierarchy, you can only extend the portfolio hierarchy. In this case, you cannot delete any characteristics, or change their sequence. You can add characteristics only at the lowest level of the hierarchy, which means that you have to give them higher sort order numbers.

If a portfolio hierarchy has been deactivated, then you can change only its description.

Displaying Portfolio Hierarchies

From the SAP Easy Access screen, under the respective component choose Evaluation Control Portfolio Hierarchy Display.
Choose the view (not relevant for TRM), and then the portfolio hierarchy.

In the right-hand part of the screen, the system displays all the base portfolios that exist for the selected portfolio hierarchy.

Deactivating, Reactivating, and Deleting Portfolio Hierarchies

On the SAP Easy Access screen, in the respective component choose Evaluation Control Portfolio Hierarchy Delete/Deactivate. In the left-hand part of the screen, the system displays a list of the portfolio hierarchies, sorted by their views, and their current status.
Choose the portfolio hierarchy whose status you want to edit.
To deactivate a portfolio hierarchy, choose Deactivate . The system sets the status of the portfolio hierarchy to inactive .

To reactivate an inactive portfolio hierarchy, choose Inactive -> Active. The system sets the status of the portfolio hierarchy to active .

To delete a portfolio hierarchy choose Delete . The system deletes the portfolio hierarchy if no dependent data exists for it.
