I am a salesforce developer but new to admin. Tring to understand security settings using role hierarchy and having an issue or confusion here. I'll try to explain this below.

I have two roles in the role hierarchy assigned to two users.

Ideally, the records of user down in the hierarchy should be accessed by the upper role assigned user but I am not able to see those records in the upper role user.

The OWD is set to private and the object on which I am checking is contact object so by default Grant Access Using Hierarchies is on. I am not getting the issue here. Please tell me where I am wrong or missing something.

In salesforce, the contacts with no accounts can't be accessed to other than owner and system administrator. Here no heirarchy roles or sharing rules work.

It was salesforce default functionality.

    I've downvoted this answer because I think it completely misses the mark. There is no indication in the question about Contacts. While Contacts could be involved, this strikes me as an issue about roles/sharing in general.
