The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques for data model design collaboration using semantically correct collaborative objects. Certain embodiments comprise detecting various interaction events from designers collaborating on designing a virtual multidimensional data model to generate unit of work objects characterizing certain design transactions invoked by the interaction events. The unit of work objects are used to determine a set of committed modifications to the virtual multidimensional data model design for broadcasting to the collaborating designers. Some embodiments comprise unit of work objects based on various multidimensional data model rules, syntactic rules, semantic rules, and/or other criteria to determine valid committed modifications. Other embodiments comprise unit of work objects from multiple design transactions that are merged to determine the committed modifications. Further embodiments comprise committed modifications that are derived from the differences between the design changes and the then current virtual multidimensional data model.
