In this part, you create the dimensions, levels and level values.

**Dimensions** in Valsight **structure data into cluster** such as product, region, or time, so values can be organized, aggregated, and analyzed across different views.

For detailed reference on any of the concepts here, see [Dimensions](/dimensions/).

## Watch the video guide

Video: [CreateDim](https://vs-documentation-assets.fsn1.your-objectstorage.com/videos/6892257281_CreateDim.mp4)

In this tutorial, you will use:

* **Time:** predefined by Valsight
* **Product:** Premium, Standard
* **Location**: France, Germany, USA, Canada, grouped into regions: Europe, America

The Location dimension uses a hierarchy:

* **Region**
* **Country**
