Dimensions are your company's own fields — for example department, cost center, project number or fuel type — that you can set on your units. Dimensions are created under Account, and put to use in Inventory on the individual unit.
The dimensions themselves are created under Account → Dimensions — not inside Inventory. In Inventory you set the values on each unit via the Dimensions tab on the detail card.
Step 1 – Create the dimension (under Account)
- Go to Account → Dimensions.
- Click + Add dimension.
- Give the dimension a name (e.g. "Department", "Cost center", "Fuel type").
- Choose a field type: text, number, date or list.
- Save.
The dimension is now available to put to use on your units in Inventory.
Step 2 – Put the dimension to use (in Inventory)
- Open a unit in Inventory.
- Go to the Dimensions tab on the detail card.
- Set the value for the unit (e.g. Department = "Oslo Nord").
- Save.
