How to: Set Up Default Dimensions for One Account

You can set up a default dimension for a specific individual account. Microsoft Dynamics NAV will then copy this code to the journal, sales, or purchase line when the account number field is filled in on the line. However, you may delete or change the code if appropriate.

The following procedure is for setting up default dimension for a customer account.

To set up default dimensions for one account

  1. In the Search box, enter Customers , and then choose the related link.

  2. On the Navigate tab, in the Customer group, choose Dimensions.

  3. Fill in a line for each new default dimension you want to set up. For Help about a specific field, click the field and press F1.

Warning

If an account is used in the Adjust Exchange Rates batch job or the Post Inventory Cost to G/L batch job, do not select Code Mandatory or Same Code. These batch jobs cannot use dimension codes.

Important

Entering a code in the dimension field on the account card does not guarantee that the code will be used when you post. This is because it may be changed on the journal, sales, or purchase line. To make sure that that the code is not changed when you post, select the Same Code option.
