How could I add a field to a custom table saving single financial dimension values per record?

Posted on by Sebastian Aurand 1,650

Hello,

I know how to store the combination of multiple financial dimension values like in the CustTable (CustTable.DefaultDimension). But in my case I need to store only a single financial dimension value to map the value to a custom value.

I would like to add a field to a custom table in order to store a value of a single financial dimension (e.G.: "Cost Center = Marketing")?

The table and the form should look like this:

25_2D00_05_2D005F00_2023_5F00_10_2D00_11_2D00_54.jpg

The field / column "financial dimension cost center" should have a lookup to the financial dimension like the single dropdown field in the CustTable: 

Thanks for any hint.

Sebastian

    Hi Sebastian,

    You can refer to the standard view DefaultDimensionView - This view will contain dimension value against cost center, Department etc.

    You can use this table to get the single financial dimension value and insert into your custom table.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    Hi Sebastian,

    In case your requirement is only about a the cost center backed with the entity operating units, you can create a lookup to the OMOperatingUnit table and set a fixed value for the OMOperatingUnitType.

    There is an example how to do this with the department type.
