Which item does a Consultant use to automate tasks in OneStream?

A Consultant uses Data Management Sequences to automate tasks in OneStream because these sequences allow for the systematic grouping and execution of data management steps in a defined order. By using sequences, consultants can streamline processes such as data loading, transformation, and validation, which enhances efficiency and reduces the potential for errors in data handling.

Data Management Sequences enable a consultant to control the flow of data operations and ensure that each step occurs in the correct order, allowing for better management of complex data tasks. This capability is particularly valuable in environments where multiple data sources or transformation processes are involved, as it helps maintain consistency and coherence in data movements and calculations.

While Data Management Steps are essential building blocks for defining individual operations, they do not provide the overarching automation and sequencing capabilities that a Data Management Sequence does. Time Profiles and Workflow Environments serve different purposes within OneStream, focusing on time-based data management and orchestrating workflows, respectively, rather than directly on task automation.
