Updated over 2 months ago

Brief description:
Learn how to pre-assign and check dimension accounts and link asset accounts.

Dimensions

Default values

  • Specify default values for cost dimensions.

  • These values are automatically pre-assigned in posting masks and in the invoice receipt book, but can be changed.

Permitted dimension accounts

  • Define which dimension accounts are permitted with this G/L account (account assignment guideline).

  • If the field remains empty, all values are permitted.


Asset accounting

  • Add or change the accounts that are used for the depreciation run.

  • Necessary for asset accounts of fixed assets

  • If investment promotion is used, also for liability accounts(special items) that are released to income.


Best practice

  • Assign dimension accounts to comply with your account assignment guidelines and prevent incorrect postings.

  • Always complete the fixed asset accounts in order to calculate depreciation runs correctly.
