Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Add Department and Project as financial dimensions to the main account.
In Dynamics 365 Finance, financial dimensions (e.g., Department and Project) are attributes attached to a main account to enable tracking by multiple dimensions simultaneously. Option A is wrong because cost centers and cost objects belong to cost accounting, not general ledger dimension tracking. Option B is wrong because main accounts and subaccounts are for chart of accounts structure, not for multi-dimensional tracking. Option C is wrong because budget codes and budget classes are used for budgeting, not for expense tracking across dimensions.
