How to: Define Intercompany Dimensions
In order for a group of companies to use dimensions on intercompany transactions, they must agree on a set of dimensions to use as a common reference. Follow the steps in the procedure to define the IC dimensions that you and your partner companies will use to make intercompany transactions.
To define the IC dimensions
In the Search box, enter IC Dimensions, and then choose the related link.
In the IC Dimensions window, enter each dimension on a line in the window. If your IC dimensions will be similar or identical to your company dimensions, you can fill in the window automatically by using the Copy from Dimensions function, and then you can edit the resulting lines.
You can export the IC dimensions to an XML file for distribution to your partner companies. On the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Export.
Specify the file name and the location where you want to save the XML file and then choose the Save button.
Before you can use the intercompany dimensions, you may want to map intercompany dimensions to your company's dimensions.
