The User Variables Dimension Column Honors the Alias Setting in User Preferences

The Dimension column on the User Variables page within User Preferences now honors the Alias Setting in User Preferences. So if an alias name is defined for a dimension, the Dimension column on the User Variables page shows that dimension’s alias based on the alias table selected in User Preferences. If no alias is defined for the dimension, the dimension name will be displayed.

Applies to: Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management, Financial Consolidation and Close, FreeForm, Planning, Tax Reporting

Business Benefit: You can now see the more user-friendly dimension's alias if it is defined on the alias table selected in User Preferences.
