Partitioning on Multiple Columns

Has anyone successfully implement partitioning on multiple columns? My
attempts produce the following error:
Server: Msg 4436, Level 16, State 12, Line 1UNION ALL view 'Test_pvw' is not
updatable because a partitioning column was not found.
For example:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test_200312_1015_ptb] (
[Period] [char] (6) NOT NULL ,
[BusinessUnit] [int] NOT NULL ,
[Amount] [money] NOT NULL
CONSTRAINT [PK_Test_200312_1015_ptb] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[Period],
[BusinessUnit]
) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test_200312_1016_ptb] (
[Period] [char] (6) NOT NULL ,
[BusinessUnit] [int] NOT NULL ,
[Amount] [money] NOT NULL
CONSTRAINT [PK_Test_200312_1016_ptb] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
