Hierarchy in BEx using a virtual characteristic

Question

Hello BW Experts,
I encountered a problem with the display of a virtual characteristic in context with a hierarchy.
The goal is to display a weighted rating (the virtual characteristic) for each hierarchy level individually.
What I get:
IAS Category Weighted Rating Ratio Weighted MV / MV
Level 1 A 5
AAA 2
Level 2a A 5
AAA 1
Stock 1 A 5
Stock 2 AAA 1
Level 2b AAA 1
Stock 3 AAA 1
What I'd like to get:
IAS Category Weighted Rating Ratio Weighted MV / MV
Level 1 AA 3
Level 2a A 2
Stock 1 A 5
Stock 2 AAA 1
Level 2b AAA 1
Stock 3 AAA 1
Level 2 is the lowest level in the hierarchy and Level 1 a text node. The weighted rating is determined in a SAP Exit (include ZXRSRZZZ) in a mapping ODS whereas the ratio Weighted Market Value / Market Value (a virtual key figure) is the lookup key. The solution might be something like the declaration of the aggregation level for the virtual characteristic in the SAP Exit.
Any suggestions would by highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Manuel

Hello,
why do you not using an Hierarchy with Characteristics and Attributes? This should be much easier.(use a balanced hierarchy)
I do not believe, that you have a chance to do the rating for the levels with a virtual characteristic.
Another possibility is to use an virtual InfoPovider with Services and do the data collection by your own.
Kind reg.
