B: By adding a column to map the bucket dates in the spreading worksheet, you ensure that the start and end dates of the spreading are properly defined and can be utilized in the algorithm.
D: Selecting "Use same spreading worksheet values for all edits" ensures that the values entered in the buckets are consistent across the worksheet, which is necessary for the spreading functionality to work correctly.
A is incorrect because removing unmapped columns does not solve the issue related to spreading values across the buckets. C is incorrect because allowing editing only if all buckets are the same size is a constraint that does not address the mapping issue.
