         <Paragraph>Use this session to map the dimension
		  sequences used in LN to
		  the external dimension sequences in the reporting database. All dimension
		  sequences for which the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/bia/tfbia8501m000#tfbia801.publ" role="manual">Publish</GUIRef> check box is selected in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/bia/tfbia8501m000" role="session">Flexible Dimension Definitions (tfbia8501m000)</GUIRef> or <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/bia/tfbia8502m000" role="session">Fixed Dimension Definitions (tfbia8502m000)</GUIRef> sessions must be mapped in the current
		  session</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>After approval, no BOD will be sent, but this data can no
		  longer be modified.</Paragraph>

         <Paragraph>Although LN supports more than 10 dimensions, in the reporting database, only
		  10 dimensions can be stored. You are adviced to follow the same numbering for
		  the external sequences as for the (internal) dimension sequences. This means,
		  start with number one for the first dimension sequence and increase the
		  external sequence by one for each following dimension sequence.</Paragraph>

         <Paragraph>The SourceSystemGLMovementBOD is used to publish period
		  balances of the general ledger account/dimension combinations. Among other
		  things, this BOD is processed in the reporting database for financial roles in <GUIRef href="/baanerp.pmdashboard" role="package">PM Dashboard</GUIRef>.
		  Suppose this database is filled from multiple applications, including LN. LN has the Business
		  Unit dimension defined as dimension no. 1, whereas another application has the
		  Business Unit dimension defined as dimension no. 2. As a result, the period
		  balances cannot be accumulated by business unit, because the dimension numbers
		  do not match.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>This session allows you to indicate that the Business Unit
		  dimension must be published as dimension no. 2, so the dimension balances can
		  be accumulated.</Paragraph>
