Hi Steveyd78 ,
Please check your connection mode.
Based on my test, custom hierarchy is not available in live connection mode.

Hi,
I'm no expect but i had this issue and found a work around that helped me.
Instead of using the drag drop method, i instead would right click the field i wanted and select "Create Hierarchy", and any additional field i wanted to add i would right click that and select "add to hierarchy"
Hope this helps,
Brett
