It would be great if the financial dimensions can be enhanced to be date effective. Currently changes to default financial dimensions and/or dimension distribution templates on positions or employees aren't shown in the Changes Timeline. When moving positions or employees between cost centres, the change is committed immediately on entry and there is no way of seeing what the previous dimension values were that were changed or to specify an effective date. This is a significant gap as mid period changes cannot be reported to F&O or payroll accurately. The current system design only allows for a direct relationship between employment and financial dimensions or between positions and financial dimensions. In practice you wouldn't change employment to change financial dimensions or move to a new position to change financial dimensions. The financial dimensions would change on a specific date for an existing position or employment, where you would want to report costs in 1 period proportionate (i.e. date effective) to the various financial dimensions.
