Modelling best practices : how to protect automatically dcube selection?

[jan.herout]

Have a nice day!

I was wondering if someone would advise me. Is there a way how to automatically LOCK/PROTECT/HOLD selection on a dcube based on data in parametric dcube?

Let me explain my question further - let's imagine the following setup :

---
DCUBE : SalesMargin - sales margin dcube; structure
- 1 SalesMargin - calculation dlist
- 2 Product
- 4 Months-24-rolling
- 5 Version - items {1st submission, 2nd submission, ...}
- 5 Scenario - items {Budget current year, Budget N+1, Tendency 1, Tendency 2, ...}

DCUBE : GlobPar - global parameters dcube; structure
- dlist 3 Global Parameters - contains dlist formatted items {Current version : format is 5 Version, Current Scenario : format is 5 Scenario}
- "dummy" dlist named 3 LabelData - one item - {DATA}

OTHER NOTES
- version and scenario dlist will never be updated
---

Is there a way how to LOCK/PROTECT/HOLD the appropriate selection on 5 Version and 5 Scenario within SalesMargin dcube, based on scenario and version selected in GlobPar dcube? How would you implement that?

Thank you very much for your comments and suggestions...
