Why do we need a time setting module as system module when we already have a dimension of time?
I am a beginner in Anaplan so please pardon if my question is basic.
This lends to one of a key principle of model building calculate once reference many times. The system module allows you to define common attributes that will be refenced in downstream calculation modules.
The best practice for module design explains this in more detail:

We have time dimension by default, But in order to use the calculations, we need to write some formulas and logic in the line items that are created in Modules. And a popular Anaplan saying, Calculate Once, Refer multiple times. That's why we create a module and as per DISCO, it has to be System module as it's common attribute that we will be using further as filter or in calculations in other modules.
Thank you for your prompt responses. This is very helpful!

Good morning everyone. I need to build a module export with some specific requirements: users can select a currency type (USD/Local), Salary Type (1 or 2), Nomina Type (1 or 2), and Version (Forecast, TS, Plan). Currently, each of these filters is driven by an independent system module published in the NUX, each…
We've been building a tool called aplan4sheets and we'd genuinely like input from this community — both on what we've built so far and on what we should prioritize next. The problem we set out to solve: Anaplan's Excel add-in is Windows-centric, and there's no real native way to pivot Anaplan data in Google Sheets. We…
