When a dimension has a backing entity such as customer or vendor, the dimension value will default to the value entered in the associated form. For example, the customer dimension would be automatically set to the customer value used when a customer is created. New options are available to enable one or more dimensions to be defaulted. For example, a business unit can be defaulted when the cost center is entered.
