How Do I - Read Dimension Values for a #MSDyn365BC Record?

Hi Readers,

This video is about how to read dimension values for a Dynamics 365 Business Central record. 

The speaker first provides background on dimensions and how they are set up in Business Central. They then explain how to read dimension values for a specific record using the get shortcut dimensions function. 

Finally, they provide an example of how to use this function to display dimension values for a purchase order line.

Here are some key points from the video:

  • Dimensions are used to track additional information about a record, such as department, customer group, and location.
  • Dimensions are set up in the General Ledger Setup page.

  • The get shortcut dimensions function is used to read dimension values for a specific record.

  • The function takes two parameters: the dimension set ID and an array to store the dimension values.

  • The dimension set ID is a unique number that identifies the combination of dimension values for a record.

  • The get shortcut dimensions function returns an array of dimension values.

  • The dimension values can be displayed in a variety of ways, such as in a list or grid.

Overall, this video provides a clear and concise explanation of how to read dimension values for a Dynamics 365 Business Central record. The speaker also provides a helpful code example that demonstrates how to use the get shortcut dimensions function.
