dimension/ dimesion values API... how can a dimension value have no dimension

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 22
I am working on a Dynamics 365 BC integration for a client of ours, whereby we are pulling dimensions and dimension values from their dynamics instance and mapping into our system. 

Certain dimension values were not being surfaced in our app, and upon closer inspection we can see that there are dimension values which have no dimension. These values appear to still be nested underneath a dimension in the Dynamics UI.

We are unable to recreate this scenario in the Dynamics UI. Is anyone able to guide us as to how we can replicate this?
The representation of the problematic dimension values over the API looks like so: 
 
{
  /@odata.context/: https:/api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/REDACTED/api/v2.0/$metadata#companies(f96ed688-f8b7-fake-guid-c6feddc14aaf)/dimensionValues/$entity/,
  /@odata.etag/: /W////Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa=////,
  /id/: / f96ed688-f8b7-fake-guid-c6feddc14aaf /,
  /code/: /1234/,
  /dimensionId/: /00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/,
  /displayName/: /BLAH/,
  /consolidationCode/: //,
  /lastModifiedDateTime/: /2024-10-03T15:13:05.21Z/,
  /dimension/: null
}

    Have you checked how these data appear inside Business Central?

    @Inge M. Bruvik, They appears as dimensions values. Nothing looks out of the ordinary. Value 9999 is problematic here, for example:
