The problem description starts with enumerating the hierarchies of dimensions categories used in the problem. Dimensions Categories are sorted from the finest grain to the larger grain.

...

• Each customer belongs to a customer_group and an unrelated customer_country.

• Each product belongs to a product_family which itself belongs to a product_group.

• shipping_mode is a dimension category without any hierarchical relation to any other dimensioncategory.

hierarchies:
- [customer, customer_group]
- [customer, customer_country]
- [product, product_family, product_group]
- [shipping_mode]

All the categories used as dimensions , in their correct hierarchies, are to be defined. They are used in the spaces definitionsin any space description must be present in the hierarchy list.

Note: MaybeSome times, from the end-user point of view, the customer group is hierarchical with the country: “wholesales/UK” is not the same group of customers as “wholesales/CZ” for instance. But if the customer group has the same name in both countries, like “wholesales”, it is not a hierarchy, it is a cartesian product. A hierarchy would be with the values “UK” and “CZ” for the countries and “wholesales-UK”, “wholesales-CZ”, “retail-CZ“ for the customer groups.
