tiHi Team,

Expense management -> expense reports -> new expense report.

While creating new expense report, financial dimensions are automatically coming from employee setup. We need to update one of the custom financial dimension 'Funding_type' to some value while creating new expense report, which will be configured in parameters form part of customization instead of employee setup.

Could you please assist here x++ coding wise.

Find below screenshot for reference.

Thanks in advance,

Krishna.

Hello,

I am not a developer, so I cant assist you, however, no one can paste you the exact code as no one knows the configuration in parameters form you mentioned.

What would help others in order to help you is to tell us what you have so far and at which point you are stuck.

Kind regards, Adis

Use DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage class to manipulate default dimensions. For example:

// Load dimensions to the the storage class (based on a table field) DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage dimStorage = DimensionAttributeValueSetStorage::find(yourTable.DefaultDimension); // Get the dimension attribute DimensionAttribute dimAttr = DimensionAttribute::findByName(...); // Find or create the dimension value record DimensionAttributeValue dimValue = DimensionAttributeValue::findByDimensionAttributeAndValue(dimAttr, 'New value' , false, true); // Assign the new value to the dimension set dimStorage.addItem(dimValue); // Generate a new ID of the dimension set and assing it to the table field yourTable.DefaultDimension = dimStorage.save();

Hi Krishna,

Can you tell us if the reply from Martin is helpful for you? It explains how to interact with the dimensions. You only need to implement it for the correct dimension in your environment. What exact coding did you use? What was the debugger outcome?
