Methods of creating multidimensional access cubes
Before assigning cell data access permissions to cubes, you must create the
multidimensional access cube and appropriate roles in EPM Administration. To assign access rights to dimension elements in a database, you
must have Administrator OLAP Database permission to that database.
There are different ways to create multidimensional access control cube depending on what modeling tool is being used. This table describes the tools and methods for MDAC creation:
| Component | Task | Reference |
