The main accoun allows to put a default as financial dimensions. The possibility are 2: FIXED VALUE or NOT FIXED
If I put default as FIXED VALUE the system override any entries in the voucher transaction with fixed financial dimension. It means that the user can fill a different financial dimension in the journal but when he enquiry the transaction list the value is always the same. It is not possible to avoid the user change the financial dimension if the default is FIXED?

I understand idea and for me it is great: I can setup Fixed FD and select only GL account and system do the magic but I agree with Alessia, There were many confusions especially with manual posting. Strange is that journal keeps what user put manually but is different from really posted on GL account. It is really difficult to explian to auditors.
Users were sure they have posted with one FD but system used different without any warning. For me if users create manual posting for account where FD is fixed but user select different FD than system should give some info on validation:
1. warning "You have used for GL account / FD XYZ which is different from Fixed ABC - system will override them for Fixed. Do you agree?" Then user has chance to stop process, change setup and post like they want or allow system to overwrite. But during posting system should overwite values in journal too. Otherwise our printed journals have no sense.
2. option "You have used for GL account / FD XYZ which is different from Fixed ABC - system will override them for Fixed. do you prefer to Overwite / Force (ignore GL account setup) / stop posing proces?"

I confirm that auditors may be concerned when controlling the transactions, in the case when a GL voucher financial dimension would have a different value than the one coming from the sub-ledger transaction. At least there must be a kind of marking, allowing to identify that the GL voucher fin dim has been automatically changed by the system upon posting.
