Import time range getting Start time instead of WF time.

Hello OneStream Community

Does anyone know how to get the data source time to use the WF time instead of the start Time range scenario . The import data source is using the start time instead of the WF , POV time. 

Thank you

Not sure I follow but if you set up your data source with Time as shown below, OS will import the data into whatever time a person has in their WF POV:

Yes I know , I am asking when the scenario is a range say 2024-2027 the datasource is using the 2024 for the import and not the WF pov time.  Is there a setting to not use the start time but use the scenario in the wf?

You should be able to set up the "Time" member to use a Data Key Type and then use a complex expression.

In your complex expression, you can pull in the scenario name and then use that if you want to populate the "Time" field:

See this OC post for a slightly different example but it should get you started:
