Dedovich took part in the Siege of Bosanski Novi in 1788[4] before earning the command of a brigade in Vukassovich's division in northwestern Italy campaign in early 1800. Dedovich went on to command an infantry brigade in St. Julien's division in 1805 and then he commanded a division in Hiller's Tyrol Column at the Battle of Verona on 18 October 1805. After his promotion to Feldmarschalleutnant on 1 September 1807 he was put in command of a division, which function he held during the entire campaign of 1809. Dedovich commanded that infantry division at the victorious Battle of Caldiero. On 2 May 1809, he commanded an independent infantry division at Ebelsberg. During the Battle of Aspern-Essling on 21–22 May 1809, he commanded a division in IV Corps; then a division in Bellegarde's First Corps at Wagram (4–5 July 1809); and finally at Zaim where the armistice took place. Afterward, he held various posts and offices. In 1819 he was named vice-president of the Military Appellate Court.[5]

He died on 4 December 1827 in Vienna.

Dedovich had a younger brother Martin von Dedovich (1756–1822), who followed in his footsteps.
