Assignment of the source entity is made at the Investment type level of the target.
All four levels of the source are in line with the lower levels of the target.
All levels of the target must correspond to a level in the source dictionary.
If a lower level of the target does not correspond to a lower level of the source, dictionary structure errors can occur.
