Remarks

This property contains the name of a column that stores the number of skipped (empty) levels between each member and its parent. This allows a parent-child hierarchy to skip levels between members. The values contained in this column must be nonnegative integers; otherwise a processing error occurs. If the column contains no value, the current member has a level depth one below its parent.
