There is no picture attached to you post, but from your description I would guess that you are
either referring to the Segmented Entry Control or to the Reference Group control.
The Reference Group Control is used toghether with surrogate keys for foreign key replacement in forms. This is described here:
Whitepaper: An introduction to surrogate key replacement in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012
In general the segmented entry control represents the finacial dimensions.
Each segment (field) in the control represents a single financial dimension.
The combination of all segments(financial dimension) is stored in the DimensionAttributeValueCombination table and the there is a single field (RecId) in the transaction table which refers back to the DimensionAttributeValueCombination table.
Here is more information on SEG:
