Mandatory dimension dependent on another dimension

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 80
Dear Forum Community,
I have a dimension /Project/. When the dimension /Project/ has the dimension value 0815 selected, I want it to be required to select a dimension value for the dimension /Split/ as well. 
Is something like this out of the box possible?

    Hi, this feature is not included in the standard. This requires customization.
    If it is a restriction that the user is not allowed to select, there is a Dimension Combinations feature.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    You can not achieve that as a global setup but you can do it for different data entities as suggested in other answers.

    That depends on your business case. PLease elaborate on that.
     
    Thinking out loud: is this Project dimension linked to an actual Job record?
     
    In that case you might consider a setup as follows:
    Set the SPLIT as a MANDATORY dimension on the Job as follows:
     
    upon posting towards the JOB00030 using the Job Journal, it will require the SPLIT.
