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:
