    Hello Amith Prasanna,

    Question is; in which form you want to set the dimension as mandatory?

    You can define financial dimensions mandatory in many ways as per the following.

    --- In the account structure; set the desired dimensions as mandatory and then activate the structure. You may need to perform "Recalculate ledger periods" in Ledger form too after that.

    --- Else; set fixed default financial dimension value in Main accounts form itself under "Legal entity overrides" section.

    --- You can also create "Advanced rule structure" where you can define main account with different dimension combinations to validate during transaction posting. After that, link that advanced rule structure with the account structure and activate.

    Therefore; whenever transactions are created in system, it will always validate the financial dimensions to select. This you can achieve without any customization.

    Hi,

    If your findims are not mandatory and can be optionally filled then they quickly get useless as people might fill them or leave them blank.

    My recommendation would be configuring your account structures in a way that you either have to enter a findim or that you don't need that findim.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Amith,

    Underlining or star marking is not possible as these fields are dynamically added on form; they are not real fields on the table itself, but part of a data structure referenced with one single reference ID. Like mentioned above, you can only make them mandatory on account structures or advanced rules.
