Dimension specified on a Sales Order / Job Card / ... gets deleted when the Sell-to / Bill-to Customer No. gets changed, even if that particular dimension is not set up with any value on the new customer no.

We think Business Central should add the dimensions to the current dimensions, instead of deleting every dimension currently on the card or document and then adding them.

My customer has Dimensions on the Sell to Customer and different ones on the Bill To Customer. It would be great if there was a setup allowing you to select if you want it to populate the Dim to the SO from the Sell-to or Bill-to Customer. Or some way to specify this in the Dimension Priorities.

It makes sense to have the option to determine where dimensions come from (Sell/Bill-to) but you would need to consider how to handle journals (IE Cash Receipts) as these are made against the bill-to so dimensions are brought on from there.

There is a General Ledger Setup parameter to define the VAT Business Posting Groups should be taken from the Sell-to or Bill-to Customer, or from the Buy-from or Pay-to Vendor. This works fine.
The same logic should be made possible for the dimensions. A General Ledger Setup parameter to define if the default dimensions should be taken from the Sell-to or Bill-to Customer, or from the Buy-from or Pay-to Vendor.

It would be great as well if on sales documents the global dimension1 or global dimension 2 value should not be overwritten by salesperson dimension if its updated or changed. Thanks

I would add that many times, companies define global dimensions based on region. So we should have an option to choose weather we want to have global dimensions from Sell-To o Bill-To Customer loaded onto sales documents.

It would be nice to be able to choose this on each global dimension.
