The logged in/proxy as user is not a manager so his/her hierarchy will not display. That is why the error message appears.

If an user who is a manager access the Define Planners page, then he/she will not receive the error message because he/she has a hierarchy and it will be displayed.

If the user - who is not a manager and receives the error message - just type in a manager's name, then the error message disappears and the manager's hierarchy will appear.
