Restricting Data Loads Outside Workflow Time Period – Excel Quick View / XFset

Hey Team,

I’ve observed that users are currently able to load data via Excel/Spreadsheet tools (Quick View / XFset) beyond the defined Workflow Time Period range for any scenario. This behavior persists even after setting the following Application General Properties to False:

• Allow Loads Before Workflow View Year
• Allow Loads After Workflow View Year

Despite these settings, the restriction does not seem to be enforced, and users can still submit data outside the intended time range.

Could you please advise if there are additional configurations or security settings required to fully restrict data loads outside the Workflow Time Period—especially when using Excel-based tools?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Yogesh Kumar Goyal
