How to disable the dimension when it has values?

When I try to disable the dimension displays an error as: "Dimension can not be inactive as data for this dimension exists."

Description:

  • Try to disable the dimension when it has values 

Prerequisites:

  • Log in to Harmony and navigate to Payroll Setup> Labor Setup > Setup.

Solution:

This issue can occur when trying to disable a dimension when it has values. The system does not allow for the disabled dimension when it has values. You will only be able to disable a dimension when it doesn't have any values. To remove the dimension values, follow the following steps:

  1. Navigate to Payroll Setup> Labor Setup > Setup.
  2. Click on the dimension from the list of the dimensions available under the labor setup navigation bar
  3. Click on the available three dots in the available dimension
  4. Click on the "Delete" icon 
  5. Navigate to Payroll Setup> Labor Setup > Setup.
  6. Try to disable the dimension.
