Hierarchies show how records are related to one another. A hierarchy contains first-level nodes, child records, and relationships between the records.
For example, in the Organization hierarchy, the Informatica record is the first-level node. The hierarchy contains the John Smith record and a relationship from the Informatica record to the John Smith record. The relationship shows that Informatica employs John Smith.
The hierarchical relationships that you can create depend on your hierarchy model.
