Hi,

When creating a new vendor...

if for example the BusinessUnit is 001 i want only to be available in the next field (CostCenter) the values 001, 002, 003.

Requires this customization or is there a specific way to use advanced rules to accomplish this?

Regards

Hi Crispin thanks for replying,

It's an example, i only want some specific costcenter values to be able when i select a specific Businessunit value.

I'm actually taking a look at derived financial hierarchies.

Do u think that this will help me?

Hi Crispin thanks again for replying,

I'm not interested in customization.

I want to restrict the available values that a dimension can take if a previous dimension has already been selected.

Do you have any idea then of which feature can do this?

Hi DYNAMICSQUESTIONS,

Have you tried using the Configure accounting structure and advanced rule structure in general ledger to setup which financial dimension combinations can be selected together.

Hi Sagar Suman thanks for replying,

Yes i actually have tried this functionality (account structure with advanced rules) but this only applies when creating a journal not when creating a vendor.

When creating a vendor i am able to select all the values in every form that i set up for the financial dimensions and i want this values to actually be restricted (like in the journal lines).

Regards

If You need to control the available values for financial dimension in master data like vendor and customers... Etc

You must make some customization, no standard function implement your business requirements

Hi,

Advanced rule structures won't help you here because the financial dimensions that you see at the vendor level are default values and can be changed when posting a transaction.

What you want to achieve requires a system modification.

Yet, be careful and assess whether this makes sense because you work only with default values here.

Best regards

Ludwig
