In the Import screen, in the dimension fields, the Group By specifications allow the display of logic accounts to override the display of members. Overriding displayed members allows dimensions to be grouped based on the values entered in the Group By field. The Group By field can be used to hard-code returned members or to append hard-coded values to original members (by entering hard-coded members and asterisks (*) in the Group By field).
For example, if you place the word Cash in the Group By field and select the Account dimension, the import form displays (for the logic account, in the Account field) the word Cash, rather than the original name of the Account member. If you place L-* in the Group By field, the import form displays L-1100, the original name of the Account member.
If no value is entered in the Group By field, no grouping occurs for the relevant dimension, and a logic account is created for each unique dimension member.
