Purchase invoice header default dimension different than the vendor dimension

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by SC-05091440-0 6
I need to set the default dimension at the Purchase Invoice header level (for the accounts payable account) that is different than the line level set at the vendor.  The goal is to set each of the defaults so the user does not have to select them.  I have tried dimension priorities with no luck.  Any ideas how I can accomplish this?
 
Thanks
Sharon

    for your reference
     
    it might be trick to set up default dimensions exactly the way you want on header and line depending on how many different tables are using default dimension. BC has log to select dimensions following certain hierachy rules. You are on the right track to use dimension priority page, but it might take some trial and errors to make it right.

    Hi, Dimension Priorities should work, I've tested it briefly before.
     
    If you need something more special than this, this will need to be customized.
     
    Thanks.

    Just to clarify, are you looking for different dimensions for the header and lines on the purchase invoice? Also, which master data do you currently assign default dimensions to—vendors, items, or something else?

    Hello,
     
    If both the Vendor and Item have the same predefined dimension then the line level will be forced to follow the header one.
    You need to customize to bypass this standard design otherwise you need to manually change the line level dimension.
