Hi - from the design doc  though I bet OS support might be more helpful: Entity Dimension (onestreamcloud.com)

Dimension Properties Tab

These properties are standard across all Dimensions. 

Dimension Type

Identifies the Dimension it currently is such as Account…UD8.

Name

The current name of the Dimension

Description

The current description of the Dimension

Access Group

This security group has access to the Dimension

Maintenance Group

This security group has access and can make changes to the Dimension.

Source Type

Standard

Normal metadata Member must match a Cube.

Business Rule

Connects to a Business Rule so that a set of Members does not have to match a Cube.

XBRL

Connects to an XBRL taxonomy.

Source Path

Enter the Business Rule name or the full File System Path for the XBRL Taxonomy’s Link Definition File.
‘Internal/XBRL/Taxonomies/EntryPoints/….’

Name Value Pairs (e.g., Param1=Value1,…)

Enter a comma-separated list of name-value pairs if the Source Type is a Business Rule or XBRL
