| Description | A group that contains all the elements that are at the same level in a hierarchy. Nodes that comprise a hierarchy level are not necessarily all child nodes of the same parent node.

Bottom Level Ind
| Description | Indicates whether the hierarchy level is at the bottom of the hierarchy. |
| Data Type | Standards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Boolean Indicator [INTEGER] |
| Is Part Of PrimaryKey | false |
| Is Required | false |
| Is Derived | false |
| Is Surrogate Key | false |
Hierarchy Level Num
| Description | A zero-based integer that shows the depth at which the hierarchy level is in the hierarchy. Level number 0 indicates the topmost level (the coarsest grained concept). The sequence of the level numbers indicates the hierarchy levels. |
