Posted on by 1,654

Hello Everyone,

    Hi, I tested it and it's standard behavior.

    Global Dimension:

    Shortcut Dimension:

    When Microsoft added these fields, Shortcut Dimension 1 Code and Shortcut Dimension 2 Code were actual fields, and those after Shortcut Dimension 3 Code were variables, which cannot be filtered and sorted on the page.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Mohana Is correct, that on General ledger entries you can only filter Global Dimensions fields value.

    For other dimensions Filter use "Set dimension filter" in which you can filter all the Dimension which are you entered in Posting.

    Are they both fields on the page?

    If it is a text/code declared variable used to show shortcut dimensions on the page then you cannot do filtering and other things.
