• Key Concepts: 
  The Dimension Library in SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (EPM-BPC) is a repository of dimensions that can be used to create and manage business models. Dimensions are the building blocks of a business model, and they are used to define the structure of the data that is used in the model. The Dimension Library allows users to create, store, and manage dimensions that can be used across multiple models. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The Dimension Library can be accessed from the EPM-BPC ribbon bar. Once in the library, users can create new dimensions or edit existing ones. Dimensions can be created from scratch or imported from other sources. Once created, dimensions can be assigned to models and used to define the structure of the data within them. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a new dimension, it is important to consider how it will be used in the model. This will help ensure that the dimension is properly structured and contains all of the necessary information. Additionally, it is important to consider how the dimension will interact with other dimensions in the model. 
  
  Related Information: 
  The Dimension Library is closely related to other features of EPM-BPC such as hierarchies and attributes. Hierarchies are used to organize data within a dimension, while attributes are used to add additional information about a dimension. Understanding how these features work together will help users create more effective models.
