hierarchy node
Hierarchy nodes are the objects of a hierarchy linked using hierarchy edges. Hierarchy nodes can be root nodes, parent nodes, child nodes, leaf nodes, orphan nodes, sibling nodes, descendant nodes, and ancestor nodes.
In an SQL hierarchy, a hierarchy node is a row of the tabular SQL data source and contains special hierarchy columns for the hierarchy attributes of the SQL hierarchy.
In a CDS hierarchy, a hierarchy node is a row of the tabular result set but without the hierarchy columns.
