G/L Budgets with Dimension Shortcut 3

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 25

Hello,

I submit a forecast and budget to Business Central a couple times a year and track actual performance against it. 

Recently I've created cost centers to improve our cost tracking/monitoring. 

Is it possible to upload a G/L budget using the ShortCut Dimension3 (which is what I've assigned to as Cost Center)? I have never done this before.

Thanks

    Hi, You can define the Dimensions you need when creating Budget, and then set the Dimension value you need when entering G/L Budget Entries.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Dimension analysis is always a good choice, but if they have properly managed in the system, so in that case while defining Budgeting in the system, Define the dimensions.
