Users export forecast report every day, they are wondering if the time scale here e.g. "Week 1 FY25" could be "Week 1 FY25 (2024-09-29)" which add a START date of this week, otherwise they have to manually add it in the excel file.
Thank you
@BruceSonos create system module with weeks as dimension and use the formulas to create your custom week name . In this case I have created like this.
Now create a Custom list and add Weeks dimension and import Combine line item into your list .
Now you can use this list in the module to show your reporting. Refer the week data from the time dimension module by using lookup of Week mapping . Hope this helps.

You can't do that with native time dimension unfortunately. You will have to introduce custom time dimension (a numbered list preferably) for the reporting/export purpose, to achieve dynamic renaming of time items.
Cheers!

Hi @BruceSonos , You could use the label option of week commencing instead to get the start date-
The time dimension across the model would look like this in that case-
Hope this helps! :)

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…
