The Ledger Settlement feature should settle transactions that do not have the same financial dimension set by generating two transactions with like dimensions sets and using those to settle the original transactions marked for settlement. This will correctly settle the full transaction and its associated dimension set balance and will not leave any dimensions with orphan balances by just settling the original two transactions against each other.

Example:

If transaction 1 has dimensions 1-2-3 and a debit of $100

is being settled against

Transaction 2 that has dimensions 4-5-6 and a credit of $100

Then the system should generate two transactions lines as seen below:

Generated transaction 1:

Has dimensions 1-2-3 and a credit of $100.

Generated transaction 2:

Has dimensions 4-5-6 and a debit of $100
