I am a nonresident of California residing in another state. My company is California-based, so is my entire pay "California sourced income" or just when I was physically in California? I was only here temporarily for 5 months then worked outside of the state for the rest of the year. Can I only claim that 5 months income as California-sourced?

Only the income you earned while working in California is considered California Sourced Income. You would file a California non-resident return and report that amount. Your resident state, if they have an income tax, will also tax you on that income, but they will also give you a tax credit for the amount of tax you pay to California, so you won't be double taxed on that income.
