Dimension setup. Only Shortcut Dimension 1 Code and Shortcut Dimension 2 Code are visible

Posted on by Sergey Anisimov 5

I'm trying to configure dimension shortcut codes in General Ledger Setup window but there are only Shortcut Dimension 1 Code and Shortcut Dimensions 2 Code are displayed. Why I can't see other shortcut dimensions in this window? If I'm trying to change global dimension 1 code and assign to it a dimension which is not Afdeling or Project then app says "The dimension <...> is used in General Ledger Setup window as a shortcut dimension"

Thank you

    Hello,

    It may be that this property is set to False for these dimensions.

    After your reply I started searching and opened General Ledger Setup -> Help -> About this page and found shortcut dimension codes there (see screenshot: drive.google.com/.../view but they are not editable. Any ideas why? Thanks for your help

    Hi Alessandro, version is 14.0.37587.0 Version DK Business Central 14.7

    I don't think they are hidden because I'm using account less than 1 month and didn't change anything there. Could you please advise me how to check in the design mode? Don't you know if it's possible that I can't view them because I'm using Demo account?

    Hello Sergey

    which version are you using?

    I checked  2018 and BC version and I can see all the dimensions in the general ledger setup page

    Could be that in the desing of the page those fields are hidden , so you can check the page in the design mode

    Nope, this page even doesn't have an option to show shortcut dimension codes 3-8 in setup. Sharing link to screenshot because can't attach it drive.google.com/.../view Also if I reset to default it still doesn't display shortcut codes 3-8

    Hi Sergey,

    Has the General Ledger Setup page maybe been modified to hide the shortcut dimension fields?

    Regards,

    Martin
