Configure the choices—not just the transaction

Maintain dimensions and options

With the required access, open Settings → Account → Financial Dimensions. Select the relevant entity type: Product, Location, Department, Invoice or Supplier. Add or edit the dimension definition, then maintain its allowed options using Value and Label.

Use your accounting team’s approved values and naming conventions.

Invoice-level coding

Open the invoice → Accounting → Financial Dimensions → Edit. Choose values, then Save Changes and verify the result.

Definitions and options have their own form saves. These actions do not run an external accounting sync.
