If you need to create default dimension from the code you can use the DMFDimensionHelper::generateDefaultDimension method.

Sample:

DMFDataSourceProperties sourceProperties;
sourceProperties.ChartOfAccountsDelimiter = DimensionLedgerAccountDelimiter::Hyphen;
sourceProperties.DimensionAttribute = "Dim1-Dim2"; // dimension codes

x.DefaultDimension = DMFDimensionHelper::generateDefaultDimension("001-ABC", sourceProperties, "");
