Hi,

Currently users are able to rename a Financial Dimension value even if there are posted transactions.
There is only a popup window asking “Are you sure you want to rename this record?” and if we clic yes, then all references including financial dimension values in setup data, posted and unposted transactions are updated (which takes too long time).
This behavior is very dangerous as it is forbidden by law to modify any data in a posted transaction.
My suggestion would be to have the same error message when renaming the Financial dimension value as if we clic on "delete" button :
"A financial dimension value is based on the XXXXXX record and has been used on a transaction. You cannot modify the XXXXXX record "
Thank you and best regards,
Mylène

Thank you for entering this idea, but we do need to keep the rename for the time being. Future versions of the product may have other blocks and reasons to not allow rename of any value in the system.
