* Add Finance posting domain-knowledge pilot Adds three atomic domain-rule knowledge files under community/knowledge/finance/ as a pilot for Type-A (normative) Business Central domain knowledge: post through the posting engine, treat posted ledger entries as immutable, and treat the Dimension Set ID as the source of truth for dimensions. Includes a good/bad AL sample pair for the posting rule. These encode BC-specific invariants that LLMs reliably get wrong, fitting the existing remedial/atomic knowledge grain with no schema or contract changes. Passes the repo frontmatter validator and is discovered by the knowledge index.

Reframes the Description around financial content and gives the operational-field exception (payment/application data, on-hold, applies-to, communication fields edited via CustEntry-Edit/VendEntry-Edit and the ledger entry pages) its own paragraph in Best Practice instead of understating it as a narrow set.

Change a transaction's dimension set reference, not a shared set's membership
Description
The same Dimension Set ID can be referenced by an unposted journal line and by many already-posted entries. Editing or deleting the persisted set's dimension/value rows therefore changes the meaning of unrelated transactions, including posting history. The dimension-set search tree also relies on those combinations remaining stable; a set is not a mutable child collection owned by one journal line.
Best Practice
To change an unposted transaction's dimensions, load its set into a temporary Dimension Set Entry buffer with DimensionManagement.GetDimensionSet, change the buffer, and obtain a reusable ID with GetDimensionSetID. Validate dimension values in the buffer so Dimension Value ID matches the chosen value. Store the resulting ID on the transaction and synchronize its projections through that record's supported dimension validation.
For already-posted G/L dimensions, use the supported dimension-correction workflow rather than changing shared rows. Read-only access, temporary buffers, and standard maintenance of projection metadata such as Global Dimension No. are not membership changes. This rule protects dimension sets reached from general-journal, financial-document, or Finance-ledger flows. It does not own Item, Value, Capacity, Warehouse, or inventory-application record writes, or prescribe custom-table/default-dimension wiring.
See sample: do-not-edit-shared-dimension-sets.good.al.
Anti Pattern
Follow a general-journal, financial-document, or Finance-ledger Dimension Set ID to a persistent Dimension Set Entry and modify, rename, or delete its dimension/value membership in order to change that one transaction. Inspect IsTemporary guards, aliases, and the fields written before reporting: the same operations on a temporary working copy are expected.
