    You can use either position hierarchy or manager hierarchy - the manager hierarchy setting doesn't need positions to work - it will simply ensure managers can see what their subordinates can see.

    Hope this helps

    you are right..

    my exact problem is , when i use position hierarchy everything works fine ( ie. CEO has only read permission to salesperson )

    But when i change it to manager hierarchy  then things are not working properly ( ie. the CEO has read /write access to salespersons record and other records)

    I don't know where i made mistake..!! any suggestions.!

    It could be that the manager hierarchy is not setup on the user records - or perhaps the CEO is more than 3 levels away from the sales people? 3 is the default 'Hierarchy Depth' and can be increased if you need. This would be the case if you had a hierarchy such as CEO->Director->Regional Manager->Sales Manager -> Sales Person since this would be 4 levels deep.

    Hope this helps
