In an import message mapping, you can have financial dimensions mapped. When the message is run, the mapping is applied. Before setting the imported financial dimensions in D365 F&SCM, you can have the standard financial dimension validations applied. This prevents you from getting incorrect financial dimensions in D365 F&SCM.
Setup
In the Connectivity studio parameters, in the Connectivity studio financial dimension validation field, you can indicate whether and how financial dimensions are validated.
Ignore validation: The financial dimensions are not validated
Custom validation: The financial dimensions, account structures, and advanced rules are validated. When an error is found, validation continues. The validation stops when all financial dimensions, account structures, and advanced rules are validated, or when further validation doesn't make sense. The found errors are logged in the message run history.
Standard validation: The financial dimensions, account structures, and advanced rules are validated. When the first error is found, the validation stops. The error is logged in the message run history.
Note
If the 'Custom' or 'Standard' financial dimension validation is applicable, in the message field mapping setup, you can skip the validation for an individual financial dimension field mapping.
Validation
Financial dimension validation is only applicable if, in a message field mapping, financial dimensions are set. If so, during the message run, the financial dimensions are validated in this sequence:
Financial dimension value.
Applicable account structures.
Note
If a financial dimension value validation gives an error, the related account structures are not validated.
Applicable advanced rules.
Note
If an account structure validation gives an error, the related advanced rules are not validated.
Note
The financial dimension validation, as done for options 'Custom validation' and 'Standard validation':
Is time consuming.
Only applies to record mappings for the LedgerJournalTrans table.
