Enable/Disable Writeback Dialog Box (SSAS)
The Enable/Disable Writeback dialog box enables or disables writeback for a measure group in a cube. Enabling writeback on a measure group defines a writeback partition and creates a writeback table for that measure group. Disabling writeback on a measure group removes the writeback partition but does not delete the writeback table, to avoid unanticipated data loss. The Enable/Disable Writeback dialog box is displayed by:
- Clicking Writeback Settings in the Measure Groups pane on the Partitions tab in Cube Designer.
- Right-clicking a partition in the Partitions grid in the Measure Groups pane on the Partitions tab in Cube Designer and selecting Writeback Settings from the context menu.
