Write Enable Dialog Box

Allows you to enable read/write permissions on a cube.

If you write-enable a cube, users in roles granted read/write permission to the cube can record changes to cube data while they browse the cube. Changes are recorded in a table called a write-back table, separate from the cube data and its source data. Users who browse a write-enabled cube see the net effect of all changes in the write-back table for the cube.

This dialog box appears when you right-click a cube and then click Write-Enable.

New

Click this button to specify a new data source.

OK
