GL87.1 - Financial Analyzer Dimension Definition

Use GL87.1 (Financial Analyzer Dimension Definition) to define the dimensions
and the criteria for each  dimension in the OLAP database. You must define the
dimensions in the OLAP database before you can define the database load
profile and populate the OLAP database using the OLAP Database Load program.

You are required to define information for the first five dimensions, which
are  represented by the following form tabs: Organization, Accounts, Periods,
Fiscal Years, and Scenarios. The Type and Products dimensions are optional.
