Q&A Series: Smart Write-Back in Fabric with Acterys

Table of Contents

Too often, data lives in silos. Finance, IT, and business teams spend more time fixing broken system links than actually analyzing data. This leads to slow performance, incomplete insights, and decisions made on outdated information. In today’s world of fast-moving markets, that’s a major risk.

Acterys was built from the ground up with write-back and enterprise planning at its core—not as an afterthought. By embedding structured workflows and write-back capabilities directly into Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, and Excel, Acterys delivers a single governed platform that reduces complexity, SaaS sprawl, and IT dependency.

Smart Write-Back enables real-time updates to your data directly within Fabric and Power BI reports. Instead of only consuming insights, teams can modify forecasts, budgets, and plans right in the same interface—making Fabric a two-way street where strategy and execution stay perfectly aligned.

With Acterys, teams don’t have to rely on IT for every data update or process change. Business users gain direct control of budgeting, forecasting, and planning. IT benefits from a simplified architecture—one interface, one database—leading to faster deployment, less maintenance, and improved governance.

Fabric is the foundation where data integration, analytics, and AI come together. By embedding Acterys into Fabric, organizations can maintain structured, governed data while unlocking real-time planning and write-back. It turns Fabric from a powerful data platform into a true business planning hub.

Acterys customers see faster reporting cycles, reduced manual errors, and far greater agility in planning. Because teams are working with real-time, accurate data, decisions are quicker and better informed. The end result: tighter collaboration, fewer silos, and strategies executed with confidence.

Unlike bolt-on solutions, Acterys natively integrates with Fabric, Power BI, and Excel—platforms your teams already use daily. That means no steep learning curve, no disconnected databases, and no risky manual processes. Just a seamless planning and analytics environment inside your existing Microsoft ecosystem.

The Acterys team will be at the European Microsoft Fabric Community Conference in Vienna, September 15–19 (Stand #11). We’ll be showcasing live demos of enterprise planning and write-back in Fabric—helping organizations see firsthand how to connect operations, strategy, and execution in real time.
