The posting mechanism of Financial Dimension in the purchasing process during reception (Product Receipt), and vendor invoice (PO invoice).
The purchase order information is consists of;

Purchase Order Header; where assigning vendor, address, payment terms, method of payment, and financial dimension AX 2012

Purchase Order lines; where assigning item, quantity, price, and financial dimension AX 2012

The auto generated financial transactions from purchase order are product receipt, and invoice. The financial dimensions are automatically inherited from the Purchase order form (PO – header, and PO – lines )
