    There is a dashboard that allows you to compare member hierarchies.  I find it quite useful.  It allows you to compare to hierarchies for base members missing, look for duplicates, etc.  I did not create it so I cannot take credit but find it highly useful and I think it will work for your need.

    Sorry, just now seeing this.  I did not get a notification, odd!

    To launch, follow these steps:

    1) After loading the 2 XML files go to the Application page > Dashboards > Dashboard Maintenance Unit > Hieararchy Validation Tool > Dashboard Group > Solution Setup and run this dashboard:

    2) Select "Setup Tables" then "Launch Solution"

    3)  Once launched you will have to use the black plus sign to add rows for the things you with to compare

    4) You will probably want to create a Dashboard Profile in to which to add this so you can get to it from OnePlace too
