Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/62690 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
SAP Note advises on utilizing the product hierarchy in CO-PA for enhanced reporting capabilities. From release 4.5 onwards, a native feature allows stepwise transfer of product hierarchy. Earlier versions can use a three-step manual setup: defining CO-PA characteristics for hierarchy levels, deriving these characteristics from material master data, and maintaining the hierarchy data in CO-PA. Step-by-step guidance shapes how to translate the product hierarchy into actionable reporting layers in CO-PA, leveraging material master fields through derivation rules and explicit characteristics creation in KEA0 transaction to enable multi-level drill-down in reports.
