TIMEVAL is a mandatory parameter in column A for form templates. Each cell value column must be connected to a time value. The time values that can be defined are the ISO time values, as well as any customized time values added in Bizview. The time values that are specified for each CVAL column needs to correspond to the TIMEUNIT specified in the same column. If the time unit is ISOWEEK, then the time value should be stated in the ISOWEEK format.
Below is a list of time value formats:

A time value must be defined for each STORABLE column in the template.
The TIMEVAL row should be defined with ROWTYPE = DESIGN (the row will be hidden when document is generated):
If you only have one TIMEUNIT in the template you can easily change the TIMEVAL column in column A to the TIMEUNIT you use and remove the TIMEUNIT row.
For example:
If you have ISOYEAR on all columns where TIMEUNIT is stated, change TIMEVAL in column A to ISOYEAR.
If you have more than one TIMEUNIT add a new row and state all TIMEUNITs. E.g. ISOYEAR, ISOMONTH etc.
