Are SAP BW hierarchies supported in the semantic layer, SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence and SAP Crystal Reports Enterprise?

Answer Posted / madhu

Yes, with BI 4.0 the semantic layer is fully multi-dimensional, this being one of the main objectives of the release.
Hierarchies are fully supported for SAP BEx queries which you access directly but are not yet supported by relational universes.
This means that the business intelligence clients that consume the semantic layer, for example, SAP Business Objects Web Intelligence, and SAP Crystal Reports Enterprise, gain access to multi-dimensional metadata.
