Dimension Combination Lines Tab

This section includes the fields and descriptions for the Dimension Combination Lines tab.

Dimension Combination Line Island

Field	Description
Dimension Comb. No.	This field shows the number of the dimension combination for the current entry.
Description	In this field, you can enter a description of the current dimension combination line.
Account No.	In this field, you can specify a dimension value for the Account dimension, if you want this value to be derived whenever the current dimension combination is used. If you also want the specified value to overwrite existing dimension values when it is derived, mark the field “Overwrite Account.” If you do not select “Overwrite Account,” the dimension value will only be derived if the dimension field into which the value is derived is neither completed manually nor through a registration code. If the dimension combination type is “Posting Reference,” you must always mark the field “Overwrite Account” when you specify an account number. When an entry is made, on which the current dimension combination is to be applied, the value in this field will only be used if the current line is the top line of those lines that match the number of the company to which the entry pertains. The company number range is specified in the fields “Company No. From” and “Company No. To.” If the dimension combination type is “Dimension Derivation,” the value will only be used when deriving from information cards which refer to the dimension combination, and where no derivation value for the Account dimension has been entered. A value in this field will not be used if the dimension combination has been assigned to an account information card in the Account Information Card workspace. This means that if the dimension combination, for example, has been selected for the account no. 1110 in the Account Information Card workspace, a value in this field will not be applied when dimensions are derived from account number 1110. Please note that a mark in the field “Overwrite Account” will only have effect if an account is also specified. If you only mark the field “Overwrite Account,” but do not specify an account, the overwrite mark is ignored, as the account and the overwrite mark are always retrieved together from the same dimension derivation island, dimension combination, or dimension combination line. For more information about derived dimensions, please see “Introduction to the G/L Module” and the description of the Dimension Derivations workspace. You can find more information about the priority of the values in the Dimension Combinations tab in relation to company-specific values and values on the individual information cards in the introduction to this workspace.
From Company No.	Together with the field “To Company No.,” this field constitutes a range of company numbers. When the current dimension combination is used as a result of an entry being made, Maconomy will check if the dimension combination contains a line with a company number range which matches the company to which the entry pertains. If this is the case, Maconomy will apply the dimension specifications entered on the dimension combination line instead of the specifications from the card part of the window. This way, it is possible to create lines with company-specific exceptions to the values in the card part. If more than one line match the company to which the entry pertains, the topmost of those table lines is applied. If no lines match the company to which the entry pertains, or if no lines have been created at all, Maconomy will only use the information in the card part. For more information about how Maconomy assigns priorities to the use of values from dimension derivation islands, dimension combinations, and dimension combination lines, please see the introduction to this workspace and the description of the field “Account No.” in the Dimension Combinations tab and the Dimension Combination Lines sub-tab.
To Company No.	The functionality of this field is described in the field “From Company No.” above.

Derived Dimensions Island

Each of the following fields in this island has two columns: Value and Overwrite.

Field	Description
Location	The functionality of this field is similar to that of the field “Account No.”
Entity	The functionality of this field is similar to that of the field “Account No.”
Project	The functionality of this field is similar to that of the field “Account No.”
Purpose	The functionality of this field is similar to that of the field “Account No.”
Spec. 1-3	The functionality of these fields is similar to that of the field “Account No.” Furthermore, when you enter a value in this field, Maconomy checks whether the current dimension combination is in use on any information cards (customers, vendors, employees, and so on.) assigned to a specific company. If it is, Maconomy checks whether the local spec. value entered in this field is also available in the local spec. list assigned to the companies in question.
Local Spec. 1-3	The functionality of these fields is similar to that of the field “Account No.”
