East, because customer defaults take priority over G/L account defaults.

West, because G/L account defaults take priority over customer defaults.

They also want the same default to apply to all G/L accounts in the 'Travel' account group. What is the most efficient way to set this up?

Use dimension combination rules to force 'Cost Center' = 'Marketing' whenever 'Travel Expense' is posted.

Create a shortcut dimension 'Cost Center' and require users to select 'Marketing' manually on each expense entry.

Set up default dimensions on the 'Travel Expense' G/L account and on the 'Travel' account group.

Set up a global dimension 'Cost Center' with default value 'Marketing' and apply it to all G/L accounts.
