Which profile type is used to enter data to base entities using Import Forms and Adj options?

• A. Base Input
• B. Parent Adjustment
• C. Review
• D. Entity Assignment

Answer: (B)

In OneStream, profile types define how data is entered and processed in forms. The profile used for entering data into base entities through Import Forms while applying adjustments to the parent is designed for this exact pattern. It allows you to bring in base or child values with Import Forms and use the adjustment option to propagate changes up to the parent, which is common when consolidating or aligning totals across a hierarchy. This combination—Import Forms for data input and Adj for parent-level adjustments—fits scenarios where you edit the base data but need the parent totals to reflect those changes. Other profiles focus on direct base data entry without parent adjustments, or on reviewing data, or on mapping entities, rather than performing adjustment-based data entry.
