Hi,

Data slice locks the specified selection. Since there is no selection (restriction), the whole RT cube will be locked (if the slice is active).

Hi ,

You use data slices to protect whole areas of data globally against changes (for example, current values or historic values).

Data slices are a concept for protecting the main data of a real-time enabled InfoCube against changes. This protection affects input-ready queries and all planning functions that use this InfoCube.

If you want to ensure that certain plan versions can no longer be changed after a certain point in time, for example, and current data is not overwritten, you can use a data slice that contains these plan versions.

Thanku ,
