Dimensions

Dimensions represent the core components of your application. For example, periods, natural account, business units, and products. The administrator establishes the original presentation of the information.

You can change the dimensions that display on the grid. To change dimensions on a grid, use the Dimension Controller dialog box or the drag-and-drop method. You can move an on-grid dimension to an off-grid dimension, move an off-grid dimension to an on-grid dimension, or exchange on-grid dimensions by moving the across dimension to the down dimension, or vice versa.

With the Dimension Controller dialog box, you can also nest dimensions across/over or down/within. An across/over is two or more dimensions displayed at the top of the grid. The lower dimension members are repeated for each member of the upper dimension. A down/within is two or more dimensions displayed down the side of the grid.
