Options for Dimensions

  • Optional

    It is possible to enter a dimension.

  • Mandatory

    It is mandatory to enter a dimension.

    For segment reporting, this option is required.

  • Not Used

    It is not possible to post transactions to a dimension for this ledger account.

    Note
    • You can only link a dimension to a ledger account with sublevel zero (0).
    • If a dimension option for a Dimension Type is modified from Optional or Mandatory to Not Used, then rebuild of history is performed without a balance for that specific dimension type. However, for the underlying transactions that are already posted with a dimension, a difference between the totals and the transactions will exist, for the year in which the adjustment was performed.
