    HI Shereen! You would use the excel with a specific Name range : XFD. Please have a look at the design doc and I suggest that you look at the Navigator trainings on that matter.

    Fact!

    We can definitely use the Excel templates to load data to OneStream.

    The templates can be used to Merge or Replace.

    A frequent template I use is for People Planning adhoc loads.

    Fact!

    Ensure the Data Source ‘Allow Dynamic Excel Loads’ is set to True to import Excel data to the Stage. OneStream will look for any named ranges in the file.
