    Creating a multi-selection lookup for an SSRS report isn't a built-in feature, but it can be achieved with some custom logic and manipulation. Use a Multi-Select Parameter
     
    Thanks

    Multi-selection lookup in report dialogs is supported out of the box (implemented in SysOperationAutomaticUIBuilder.addCollectionDialogField()). What you need to do is creating a data member (in your data contract class) that accepts and returns a collection (typically List) and is decorated with DataMemberAttribute or AifCollectionTypeAttribute.
     
    I'm not sure what you want to do about default dimensions, though.

    this code is working fine to show dimension values but i needs description as well, there is display methid in dimensuionattribute value to get name but cant be used in query
     
    public void DivisionLookup()
    {
        Query                   query                   = new Query();
        DimensionAttribute      dimensionAttribute      = DimensionAttribute::findByName('BusinessUnit');
        query.addDataSource(tablenum(DimensionAttributeValue)).addRange(fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue,DimensionAttribute)).value(queryValue(dimensionAttribute.RecId));
        QueryBuildDataSource    qbds    =  query.addDataSource(tablenum(DimensionAttributeValue));
        qbds.addRange(fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue,DimensionAttribute)).value(queryValue(dimensionAttribute.RecId));
        qbds.addSelectionField(fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue, DisplayValue )); //needed for field display in lookup
        container selectedFields = [tableNum(DimensionAttributeValue), fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue, DisplayValue)];
   
    SysLookupMultiSelectCtrl::constructWithQuery(this.dialog().dialogForm().formRun(), DivisionDialogField.control(), query, false, selectedFields);
    }

    You seem to be saying that this thread is resolved: you know how to create a multi-selection lookup for dimension values. Now you have a different question, therefore please create a new thread for it.
     
    By the way, I found a bug in your code: you added the data source (DimensionAttributeValue) twice. This is the fixed code (and made easier to read):
    public void divisionLookup()
{
    DimensionAttribute dimensionAttribute = DimensionAttribute::findByName('BusinessUnit');
    
    Query query = new Query();
    QueryBuildDataSource qbds = query.addDataSource(tableNum(DimensionAttributeValue));
    qbds.addRange(fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue, DimensionAttribute))
        .value(queryValue(dimensionAttribute.RecId));
    // Needed for field display in lookup
    qbds.addSelectionField(fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue, DisplayValue));
    
    container selectedFields = [tableNum(DimensionAttributeValue),
                               fieldNum(DimensionAttributeValue, DisplayValue)];

    SysLookupMultiSelectCtrl::constructWithQuery(
        this.dialog().dialogForm().formRun(), 
        DivisionDialogField.control(),
        query,
        false,
        selectedFields);
}
