Derived Dimension

     Derived Dimension functionality is used to automate the related dimension and prevent users to do mistakes during entries. Even the dimensions are derived, user can be able to change/override the derived dimension if prevent setup is not set.

    For example, you have 2 dimensions. Department and Cost Center. You need the department dimension to filled in auto once user selects the cost center. You use Department dimension for reporting purposes. 


Department: Project Operations

Cost Center: ERP

                     CRM


Once this both cost centers (ERP and CRM)  are attached to the Project Operations department, user only needs to select one the cost center and department dimension information is auto filled.  

You can link more than one segment to dimension segment. 

    For example: You have 3 dimensions; Product, Department and Cost Center.


Department: Project Operations

Cost Center: ERP

                     CRM

Product:       Dynamics 365 Finance

                    Dynamics 365 SCM

                    Dynamics 365 Sales


Once you link as below, only to select the product will be enough to proceed;


Project Operations, ERP, Dynamics 365 Finance

Project Operations, ERP, Dynamics 365 SCM

Project Operations, CRM, Dynamics 365 Sales
