Simple Dimensions Used as Attribute Domains

Both Seeded and User-defined Attributes often utilize a Simple Dimension to provide a list of values. For example, you can create an Adjustable Type Attribute on your Product Dimension and you might want this attribute to be limited to the values of Fixed, Variable, or Administered. In this case, you can build a Simple Dimension called Type whose dimension members were limited to three values: Fixed, Variable, or Administered. Then you can assign the Type dimension to be the domain of your new Adjustable Type Attribute.
