The business segments have a generic dimension name, e.g., FIN BSEG 1. In the BSEG maintenance page, the dimension’s caption can be changed to reflect the business usage of the business segment. This caption will be shown in the user interface instead of dimension’s name. As well as changing the dimension caption the mandatory Total BSEG x and NA BSEG x elements can be given business description. This will not change the principal name of these element rather give these element an alias that represent the business usage.

For example, if you are using FIN BSEG 1 to represent you organisations Cost Centers, you could change the Captions, Total and NA elements like this:
