Known limitations / merchant FAQs
Which Dimension does the card use? Dimension 1 by default, or workspace-configured. Most BC tenants use Dim 1 for primary slice (Department, Brand, Channel). Multiple Dimensions: can I see crossing? Card defaults to single Dimension. Cross-Dimension (e.g. Channel × Brand) is on the roadmap. Postings without Dimension Value? Counted under “(unassigned)”.

The card uses BC standardDimension table, AL Extensions extend without modification.
