Dimension Segments to be displayed in separate columns
In Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Trial Balance (General Journal > Inquiries and reports > Trial balance) is displayed with Main accounts and Dimension segments in separate columns. This is enabled by the parameter "Display segments in separate columns". Hence, when the Trial B...
Financial dimension based on transaction type / posting type (cross-module)
Transaction-based financial dimension:
There was an easy-to-implement possibility to largely improve GL reporting and analysis capabilities by extending the ledger integration by financial dimensions.
In several setups, a posting integration is defined by ledger account defined i...
Allocation Terms and Budget Control
Allocation terms (defined against the main account) are a great feature, as they post in real time with the original transaction. However, when using budget control, they don't work in all areas of the system. For example, I've found that while they work for sales order posting, they don't work w...
Ledger Allocation Rules - Allow additional account types
Hi,
Ledger allocation rules can currently be used for allocating amounts between ledger accounts.
Many companies require a similar to allocate amounts from ledger accounts to projects, vendors, customer for multiple reasons (Example: indirect cost allocation, interest calculation...
Thank you for your feedback. This is a great suggestion! We will consider this in our roadmap.

Partial settlement should be enabled, if there is a cross-year ledger settlement but only in already closed accounting years (advanced awareness option was enabled before closing the previous accounting year).
New validation was implemented (by hotfix ID 1025443) to ensure that no cross-year ledger settlements exist before enabling the "Partial ledger settlement" GL parameter. It should prevent problems with out-of-balance error during the year-end close.
This validation makes sense o...
The Advanced awareness feature needs to be enabled before the partial ledger settlements can be enabled. Any new ledger settlement features are only enabled with the Awareness feature turned on so it needs to be on before the partial ledger settlement is enabled.

Vendor invoice journal (or daily journal) with ledger accrual postings in closed period (or module)
Foresee a new GL and AP parameter which allows posting of ledger accruals in a closed period/module (for past and future postings). GL : when working with daily journals AP : when working with invoice journals for example AP : vendor invoice posting date 01/02/2021 - period 02/2021 is open, peri...
Thank you for the suggestion. We will evaluate the suggestion for future planning.
Allow option to open/close Posting Layers within an accounting period
With posting layers being used to track IFRS, Local Stat or GAAP adjustments, it would be extremely helpful if D365 Finance gave the option to open/close by posting layer within an accounting period. Scenario Close the Current Layer for a given accounting period so no additional postings can be ...
Thank you for the suggestion.
Ledger calendar - split project into project revenue & project cost or incorporate project into closing of other modules
In the month end closing process, when closing application modules separately there is an option to close the "project" module.
This will block any entries on the project subledger for that period. This will block both the registration of revenue transactions (new project invoices) and t...
Tasks assigned in All financial period close tasks to appear in Activities
When assigning a task to someone in All financial period close tasks, it should be visible in Common| Activities | All activities. If the task is visible in All activities, then the user could see it in Outlook so they would not have to open the Dynamics 365 F&O to see the task, they can just ope...

We will be starting research and development on a new 'Accounting rules engine' which will meet this requirement. Think of it as bringing together all the posting profiles into a single location + adding support for more criteria and dimensions. For example, you could define accounting rules differently for customer invoices vs customer credits.
We'll update the Idea when we have more clarity on which release it will come in, but it's tentative for 2025 Wave 2. Please watch the release wave documents and What's new documents also for more details.
