No hierarchy in contributor view

Hi,

I tried to publish a cube under cognos express 9.5
It's quite simple and has only 3 dimensions: products, versions and measures.
The hierarchy for contributor is defined in the products dimension. When I publish the cube via planning administration I have a correct reviewer hierarchy (brand --> product type --> product) but in the contributon view (first folder) there are only the products - there is no hierarchy.

I could not find out how to get the hierarchy in the contribution view - I tried to open the application with different users and rights (Administators and Cognos Express Users) but as far as I can see that's indepentend of any rights you define.

Thanks for your help!
Klaus

As i know this is how contributor works. It will show you only nodes from approval hierarchy, and only nodes can be opened in contributor. You can open consolidations in reviewer only, and only in rewiever you have hierarchy. IBM integrated contributor and reviwer in CE 10.1, and in this version you will have proper hierarchy, and possibility to open consolidations in Planning aplication.

Thank you!

if that's a fact then we cannot use this toll. Because we need the consolidations in that hierarchy and the planer need the structurs to find the nodes (it's a quit long list of products).
