# Editing measure properties

When you update the properties on measures in Analyzer, including calculated measures, you are making a change to the data source which will affect all users who are creating reports based on that data source. Such changes require users to be assigned the **Manage Data Sources** operation permission in Users and Roles. For more detailed information on viewing and editing properties for both base measures and calculated measure, see **Updating Measure Properties**.
