3136817 - Hierarchies Not Displaying Correctly in the Excel Add-In

When opening a report using the Excel Add-In, you cannot expand and collapse all hierarchies. You can just expand and collapse hierarchies by 8 levels, but the report should display more.

1. Go to Business Analytics work center.
2. Go to Design Reports work center view.
3. Search and open any report.
4. You can see it has 10 levels of hierarchy to be expanded or collapsed. 

5. Go to Microsoft Excel.
6. Go to Excel Add-In tab.
7. Insert the report.
8. You can just expand and collapse hierarchies by 8 levels. 

The analytical Excel Plug-In reuses the existing grouping functionality of the Microsoft Excel. As the Microsoft Excel only supports 8 levels of hierarchy, the Excel Add-In also supports only 8 levels.

If you need to use collapse and expand options for more than 8 levels, we recommend you to access the report directly within your system. When using Excel Add-In, it will just allow you to collapse and expand by 8 levels of hierarchy.
