what are confirmed dimension?

We alwys give date as a conformed dimension but if it has
different format
for different contries say YYMMDD for italy and MM-DD-YYYY
for france.Then are they not confirmed.

Answer Posted / jay

Conformed dimensions mean the exact same thing with every
possible fact table to which they are joined.

Dimension tables are not conformed if the attributes are
labeled differently or contain different values.

Date Dimension is a confirmed dimension though thay have
different formats (Please correct me if I am wrong)
