Dimension set entry
Dimension set entry is one of Demiton's published registers for Australian civil construction. The finance dimension values (such as equipment) attached to ERP postings. Demiton keeps it current from the systems a contractor already runs and publishes the record's shape as a versioned JSON Schema, so the same question works whichever system produced the record.
