Automated dimension hierarchies in Business Central
Elevate Dimensions automates dimension management through configurable hierarchies. When a user selects a dimension value on a document or journal line, the extension automatically applies related parent dimension values based on rules you define.
Dimension hierarchies that apply themselves
Elevate Dimensions automates dimension management through configurable hierarchies. When a user selects a dimension value, the extension automatically applies related parent dimension values. This eliminates repetitive manual entry and ensures consistent dimension coding.
Automatic Parent Dimensions
Parent dimensions are filled in automatically when you enter a child dimension value, reducing data entry on every document and journal line.
Improved Accuracy
Hierarchy rules enforce consistent dimension combinations, preventing mismatched or missing dimension values across your organisation.
Flexible Hierarchy Types
Supports simple parent child relationships, ragged hierarchies (where only some child values cascade), and multi parent hierarchies (where a child value maps to more than one parent value).
Works Everywhere
Integrates with sales documents, purchase documents, general journals, item journals, default dimensions, and project task dimensions.
Conflict Detection
Warns you at setup time if hierarchy rules would produce conflicting dimension values, so you can resolve issues before they affect transactions.
Multi Parent Selection
When a child value maps to more than one parent, users can select the correct parent at runtime. Full flexibility for complex organisational structures.
