Range Scenario - Data Import

I'm trying to load plan data into a range scenario that spans across 2 years. While the workflow view year is 2024, the range is set from 2024M1-2028M12, so the expected result would be that the load can occur for the 2024 and 2025 data that is being loaded in this import step. Is that hypothesis true? 

The primary question is: What is the difference between workflow view year and workflow range?

Additionally there is an icon in the workflow that "cannot import data to time periods 'AFTER' the workflow view year [2024] (see below).

In the application properties, there is a setting that allows loads after workflow view year.

When this is set to true, the icon goes away and data can be loaded to both years. We are trying to avoid flipping this switch to keep users from accessing any time periods not within the range.

1. 'Workflow View Year' value will set the Workflow year to that same value. So if your workflow view year is 2024 , it will set the year as 2024 for that workflow for all users. Even if you choose a different year/month by clicking on the workflow, it will reset to 2024.

2. Workflow range allows you to input data in one time period within that range.

Can you keep both property as false and then try loading the data for 2024 and 2025.

 

The current settings have the property as false, and during the load it will only import 2024 data. In the processing log, I can see the 2025 data with a log code of 11 - "Time Outside Workflow View."

Can you post the full Scenario and Workflow configuration, please?
