Can't post user-defined dimensions on journal entries via API

[Hassan Syyid]

A client of ours uses User-Defined dimensions, and has a requirement to define them when posting journal entry lines:
https://developer.intacct.com/api/general-ledger/journal-entries/

The docs only mention custom fields, along with standard dimensions like DEPARTMENT. Attempting to pass a custom dimension like a custom field doesn't work.

Is there any way to programmatically set user-defined dimensions when posting transactions via API?

In my example I have a user defined dimension with an ID of "WORK_ORDER".

The value I am passing is the "ID" or record number of the UDD record.

 <GLENTRY>
                <ACCOUNTNO>2080</ACCOUNTNO>
                <DEPARTMENT>ADMIN</DEPARTMENT>
                <LOCATION>100</LOCATION>
                <CURRENCY>USD</CURRENCY>
                <TR_TYPE>-1</TR_TYPE>
                <AMOUNT>1450.80</AMOUNT>
                <EXCH_RATE_TYPE_ID>Intacct Daily Rate</EXCH_RATE_TYPE_ID>
                <DESCRIPTION>Accrued salaries</DESCRIPTION>
                <GLDIMWORK_ORDER>5343</GLDIMWORK_ORDER>
            </GLENTRY>
