Changing StoreType of a DataCell

Hello,

We're trying to change the storage type of an existing cell. Does anyone have an example?

 

Thank you.

Best regards,

Carlos

    The storage type is dependent on how the data was 'created'. Entered manually = Input, posted as a journal = Journals, calculated = Calculation, etc.

    So if you want to have a certain storage type for a given cell, I suggest you calculate / enter / post / ... the data accordingly. However, I do not see how this is worth the effort in most cases as you can also just reflect the origin of the data via the Origin dimension, or a common-practice audit dimension.
