you cannot directly use an existing master dimension within the definition of another master dimension. However, you can achieve similar functionality by using variables. Here's how you can do it:

1. you can create a variable that holds the expression of your existing master dimension.

2. Then you can use this variable in a New Master Dimension.


 Example

//Define a Variable


SET vMasterDim = [YourMasterDimensionExpression];

// Create a New Master Dimension
- Go to Master Items > Dimensions > Create new, and in the expression editor, use the variable:

$(vMasterDim)

I hope this helps.
