Setting Partition Writeback
If you write-enable a measure group, end users can change cube data while they browse it. However, the changes are saved in a separate table called a writeback table, not in the cube data or source data. End users who browse a write-enabled partition see the net effect of all changes in the writeback table for the partition.
On a write-enabled partition, you can use cube roles to grant read/write access to users and groups of users, and to limit access to specific cells or groups of cells in the partition. For more information about granting read/write access to a cube's cells, see Granting Custom Access to Cell Data.
You can browse or delete writeback data. You can also convert writeback data to a partition.
