With the Essbase outline in Edit mode, you can set properties for individual members. You can make these changes using the keyboard or the member inspector.

To enable inline editing, double click on a member or in one of the columns to the right of the member name in the outline. For example, if you click along a row for a member you want to edit in the Data Storage Type column, you can use a menu to select a storage type for the highlighted member. If you double-click in the formula column, you can type a member formula.

With inline editing enabled you can:

• Type member names, or rename existing members.

• Use the Tab key to move from left to right between columns.

• Use the Enter key to move down in the outline tree.

• Use the space bar to expand menus, and use the up and down arrows to navigate the menu items.

You can also select multiple rows and change member properties in all selected rows at one time. For example, you can select several rows and change the member consolidation to + by clicking the + sign on the toolbar.
