The proposed solution, which is to configure one account structure for expense accounts and apply advanced rules, does not fully meet the client's requirements.

While it is true that the proposed solution will ensure that only expense accounts require dimensions posted with transactions, it does not address the second requirement that users must not have the option to select dimensions for a balance sheet account.

Applying advanced rules to the account structure will only impact the posting of financial dimensions for specific accounts. It will not prevent users from selecting dimensions for balance sheet accounts if they have access to the financial dimension fields.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. No, the solution does not meet the goal.

To fully meet the client's requirements, the solution could be to use account structures to control which accounts require financial dimensions, and to use security roles to restrict access to financial dimension fields for balance sheet accounts. This would ensure that users do not have the option to select dimensions for balance sheet accounts.
