如何允许用户运行宏来编辑他们没有“编辑”权限的范围或工作表？

Question

I have made a macro that takes a set of input data, transfers it to a master data table, graphs trend lines of the data, and then clears the data entry sheet. All sheets are protected to avoid employees from changing or deleting data that has already been entered and only the cells which require data entry are available for editing by the employees who I've shared the sheet with. The macro works well if I try to run it but if another employee attempt to run the macro they get an error stating they don't have permission to edit certain ranges.

When I wrote the Excel macro for the same task I was able to unlock the sheets up front, transfer the required data, and then re-lock the sheets but can't figure out how to replicate this type of behavior in Google Apps Script.

The Protection class on the Google Developers page did not prove to be helpful, since I kept getting an error saying the function protect could not be located in the Object spreadsheet. I also tried the addEditor function without much luck. This is my first Google Apps Script and I've been trying to learn as I go but this project is proving difficult.

Thank you to @Tedinoz for helping me realize you can rename the onEdit function so long as you designate 'e' as a function input. I was able to use an Installed Trigger on the sheet set to run RenamedonEdit(e) whenever the sheet is edited.
