Posted on by Scott Jackson UK

UPDATED 22nd July 2025 Microsoft have announced replacement feature as part of Wave 2 2025, see link:
Visualize and work with hierarchical data from multiple tables | Microsoft Learn

ORIGINAL POST BELOW:
Does anyone know of any alternatives for the built in Hierarchy Control without writing your own PCF control ?

I am aware that the existing control is being deprecated, and that you can use it by enabling the switch as per the instructions on the deprecation notice at: Important changes (deprecations) coming in Power Platform - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

However, with 2024 Wave 2 and the New Look, it does not display the data correctly as it only shows the first 12 characters of each data field.

We have logged a ticket and Microsoft aren't going to fix it for the new look, so I am on the hunt for a replacement as soon as I can.

Any suggestions appreciated as I want us to avoid building our own PCF control.

Thanks in advance

Yes, need a replacement asap!

My organization relies on the Account Hierarchy heavily and now its pretty messed up.

We have much that relies on this in and out of the system and is going to create a lot of workaround work without it.

Hopefully someone out there has a solution before this goes away completely.

Hello all,

I am experiencing the exact same situation. Just hoping to be included in any solutions that are being presented via the PCF control.

Also annoyed with this being removed and hoping someone cleverer than me can create a replacement.

Microsoft has announced the deprecation of the hierarchy control in model-driven apps, effective October 2024, with complete removal slated for October 2025. This control, which visualizes relationships between records, will no longer be supported due to low usage, accessibility issues, and incompatibility with the modern app interface.

Companies like Resco have introduced PCF controls designed to replace the deprecated hierarchy control, offering features that integrate seamlessly with existing systems.

Hello Scott,

I believe Clément Olivier has already developed the PCF control that is available under the https://pcf.gallery/

Please refer the Hierarchy Control https://pcf.gallery/hierarchy-control/ and you can download the control through GitHub site https://github.com/carfup/PCF_HierarchyControl along with steps on how to configure the control.

Extremely unhappy too that this feature is going away without a solid replacement from MSFT. We LIVE by this feature in our org. Don't understand how can a CRM tool - that is designed to house Customer information - remove our ability to see how a business is structured? They still have the 'people org' feature - so why are they taking away Account hierarchy???
