Mapping Reconciliation Compliance Transactions Attributes to Dimensions

When you map a Reconciliation Compliance Transactions target application, the dimension details of the application are populated automatically in Dimension Details.

Image shows the Dimension Details tab.

Dimension names must match exactly with attribute names in Account Reconciliation. If the dimension is for a standard attribute, its name should be exactly as specified here and should not be changed.

By default "Profile" is mapped to the "Account" (Reconciliation Account ID) target dimension class and "Period" is mapped to the "Period" target dimension class.

The following dimensions are assigned to the Attribute target dimension class and are mapped to the ATTR1 to ATTR4 columns respectively. If mappings rules are needed for these dimensions, change them to Lookup dimension types and map them to UD (user-defined) columns. Attribute dimensions can have no mapping rules.

Table 3-3 Default List of Dimensions

Dimension Name Target Dimension Class DB Table Column
Short Description Attribute ATTR1
Long Description Attribute ATTR2
Transaction Date Attribute ATTR3
Close Date Attribute ATTR4

For more information about Lookup dimensions, see Adding Lookup Dimensions.

The following are standard dimensions and the names should not be changed. Dimensions for unused currency buckets can be deleted.

Table 3-4 Standard Dimension Details

Dimension Name Target Dimension Class DB Table Column
Amount (Entered) Attribute ATTR5
Currency (Entered) Attribute ATTR6
Amount (Functional) Attribute ATTR7
Currency (Functional) Attribute ATTR8
Amount (Reporting) Attribute ATTR9
Currency (Reporting) Attribute ATTR10

Other standard dimensions are shown below. These can either be Lookup or attribute dimensions. Because Reconciliation Compliance Transactions allow the same custom attributes to be assigned to the transaction itself and its action plan, the system differentiates between custom attributes for the transaction and custom attributes for the action plan. In this case, the system prefixes Action Plan at the beginning of dimension names for action plan attributes.
