    Hey,

    I tested it again in lower environment and you were right it doesn't update correctly.

    I checked with OneStream support and BRApi.Utilities.GetApplicationProperties(si).GlobalTime will only hold  cached values. It won't update it at the DB level.

    Now, I'm also moving to SQL solution suggested by bilbrandon.

    Thanks,

      Hi Gaurav,

      Even after using the SQL query, the same was not reflected in the UI. Do you know how we can achieve that?
