Financial dimension alias

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 764
Hi all,
I want to know how we can define financial dimensions alias in D365 FO other than ledger account alias because in it main account also can select but I need only to define dimensions like a way of defining analytical accounting alias in dynamics GP.
 
In ledger account alias, we can make a combination of dimensions and leave a main account segment in a ledger account alias field.
 
Is there any other way to achieve dimensions alias?

    Ramit, 
    I want to use different combination of dimensions in entry, it is difficult to select one by one, there is a concept of alias to use instead of one by one dimension selection. One way is to use ledger account alias and leave a main account blank in setup. My question is that is there any other way available in f&o to achieve this.

    As Ramit mentioned, you can use derived financial dimensions to fill the details of dimensions once one of them is selected.

    Hi,
    There is no place in the system to set financial dimension aliases. For instructions on financial dimensions, you can view the links below:
    Financial dimensions - Finance | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn
    Enter account and dimension combinations (segmented entry control) - Finance | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn
    Best Regards,
    Hana
