Update SQL DB

I know that I can create an infocube using RDB.  My ODBC connect is set with user who has read and write rights.  Can I update my SQL Table with Entity data or MDB inforcube data using the RDB infocube?  How do I accomplish this task?

 

Thank you for your help.

    Hi Tuyet-Lan Faber,

    due to the fact that your question is very general, I only can suggest you to read the follwoing part of our manual Rolap Cubes  and it would be also useful to see following E-Education Video https://boardeducation.talentlms.com/unit/view/id:2171 

    Please keep in mind, that for writing back data to a relational DB, the entities in board has to be a Primary Key in your relational Database

     

    regards

    Hi @Jessica Saavedra,

    the first thing is: go to Board Reference Manual (boardmanual.com), then search for "ROLAP"; this will give you a result like this https://www.boardmanual.com//Rolap_Cubes.htm.
    The second link doesn't seem to work. But, you can log in to the e-learning, search for "ROLAP" and this will yield
