Set Up Derivations by Company and/or Transaction Type

Previously, the rule for dimension derivation was defined in the Dimension Derivation window as a global setting.

If you need to derive dimensions based on company and/or transaction type (rather than global setting) use the Dimension Derivation Selection window. The tab has a default dimension derivation name and a user island. The sub-tab has a target group with a Company No., a Transaction Type Group No., and a Period, and the Dimension Derivation Name. You can create dimension derivation principles and remove them as needed, as well as reset dimensions before rederivation.

This set-up dialog is used when you make a registration. The system searches in the table part until it finds a line that matches the registration, and then it uses the dimension derivation priorities from that line. Maconomy then uses the default dimension derivation name from the tab of the dialog, if no lines match the current registration.
