Axapta Dimensions are mostly used for reporting purpose. Using Dimensions one can categorize the transactions. For Example:
If your head office is in US. Here you have different department like Sales, Purchase, Administration and Accounts. You have other Sales Office in UK, France and Germany. In UK you have sales office at London and Manchester.
Now suppose your London office makes a sales then you should create a Sales Order which should have dimensions as Follows:
Department - Sales
Cost Center - UK
Purpose - London
With this setting if you want to know the total sales made by London office, you can always get it.
