Day Period
When using Weeks as a Calendar Type in Anaplan Time, there is no easy way to aggregate from days to months. We would be able to use TIMESUM function, but you cannot used simple Dates to indicate start and end of the month as function parameters -> it needs to be Period type. Unfortunately line items with Period type can…

New function to calculate 'Inception to Date'
It appears that there is no out-of-the-box function to sum all values up to the current period to return the 'inception to date' value. A new function could be very similar to MONTHTODATE and YEARTODATE but calculate from the start of the time range up to the current period (potentially with optional offset arguments).…

Open multiple items from Search in NMX.
I am submitting this idea on behalf of Okta. When using the New Model Experience, we would like to be able to select multiple models from the Model Search panel. Right now, the process is that we use the Search, select the model, open it, and then have to open the search and re-type the search again to re-select a second…

New Modeling Experience Idea: New formula editor box to be avalilable in deployed mode
With newest UX for modeling I found the missing opportunity to see the pretty syntax highlighting in models being in deployed mode. The double-chevron icon is unavailable during deployed mode so i can't switch to "New intuitive formula editor so you can highlight syntax to improve accuracy and easily read formulas" which…

Remove the 'Edit' formula button within the new model building environment.
In a recent amendment to the new model building environment, there is now an 'Edit' button that needs to be selected before a model builder is able to amend an existing formula. This only appears when 'expanding' the formula bar. Whilst I could perhaps understand the reason for this addition in preventing…

Open source module link in NUX
Suggest to add the "Open Source module" ability to the NUX, incl. the current analysis options available in the old UX. Right now our users can use the open source module function in the old UX whenever they want to dig into the details, see all the underlying formulas/comments, and do ad hoc analysis. Especially, the…

Switch Statement Formula
Adding a switch statement formula to Anaplan to get rid of long nested IFs! This would assist in readability (and therefore maintenance) of complex formulae. Switch statements allow you to test a condition, and assign an outcome to each condition. For instance you may have want to test what mode of transport is being used:…

Subset Formula in General Lists
Hi Team, Can we have an option to have "Formula" in the General Lists --> 'Subsets' section. It would be easy to control Subsets using formulae. Thanks Sathya

New Model Experience - formula editing field improvement
I am sharing here one idea that would make the New Model Experience even better than it is now: Automatic formula indentation / keeping white spaces and new line hits in formula text It would be quite nice to be able to keep the formulas more friendly-looking and let devs to work with them easier. Colours in formulas made…

Standardise Zero Formatting between Modules (& Classic UX) and New UX
When setting number formats, the formatting should be consistent across Modules/Classic/New UX. Below, see an example where a material zero balance is formatted as a hyphen as selected. In the New UX, this appears as a non-zero value. The workaround is to round the output to zero, but Anaplan should format consistently…

Be able to navigate/refresh dashboards while processes are running by other users
It will be a lot more efficient for users to be able to navigate and refresh through the dashboards so at least be able to view the information even if other users are running actions or entering inputs. At the moment, the whole model freezes while other users are processing action or entering inputs. This sometimes may…

Display Line Item GUID in Blueprint
I would like to have a unique identifier for every line item in a blueprint displayed either on screen or when I do an export as this will enable me to do more straightforward comparisons between models where the line item name may have changed but not the use of the line item itself. Currently I either have to a code…

Add ability to easily step through / run until X in a Process
I would like the ability to more easily step through the actions in a given Process. Often when trying to debug an issue with a given process, I need to step through the actions in the process to see how the data or views change mid-process. Currently, I need to search for and run each action independently in order to do…

Applying DISCO labels to Model Map
I would like to apply the DISCO-methodology to the Model Map. The most efficient way would be to label the Functional Areas to the DISCO. The model map could then be visually sequenced based on the DISCO steps: https://us.v-cdn.net/6037036/img/PLANS_DISCO_33530.jpg?small?v=1.0&px=200 This could improve the value of the…

When deleting a formula from a module I would like the data in the module to also be deleted.
When deleting a formula from a module I would like the data to also be deleted/removed from the module. I realise the data can be removed manually by selecting the data in the module and pressing delete, but in a module with many thousands this is a time consuming process, particularly as Anaplan only allows deletion of…

Add List Subsets to Model Search (new modeling experience)
Please add List Subsets to the Model Search of the new modeling experience, with a link to the parent list. List subsets are currently very difficult to identify if they were not initially created with a good naming convention. I end up having to export all General Lists and using Excel to search for the list subset in…

Sort Modules and Line Items Alphabetically in Filter pop up
Please sort Module names and Line Item Names alphabetically in the Filter pop-up window. In modules where there are a lot of a lot of Line Items, it can be very difficult and time consuming to scroll through and locate the correct line item for a filter. This makes for a very frustrating experience as a model builder.

Searh Bar Location within the Formula Area in the New Modelling Experience UI
As a user in the New Modelling Experience, I would like the formula search bar to not cover the body of the formula, so that it is easier for me to navigate my formula while performing a search action within the formula area. Currently the search bar will cover part of the formula upon its invocation, which is not user…

open a list and keep it open
Hi Team, Would to be able to open a List as a new tab as with opening a module. Then it stays open until I close it. I appreciate best practice is to create property modules but we don't need property modules on all other lists and we have enough to build already. So before I go building formulae I can first of all open…

New Model Experience: Open multiple lists simultaniously
In the new model experience it is possible to open multiple lists in the tabs, what is great! However, I would like to open multiple lists at once in the 'general lists' section.

Copy and paste items from a numbered list with duplicate display names into more than one cell
Currently an error is returned if you copy an item from a numbered list, in which there is another item within that list that shares the same display name, and the user attempts to paste this into more than one cell. The workaround for this is to create a new line item, enter a formula, find the code for the corresponding…

New modelling experience: Can we bring back the lists in the settings bar please?
Hi All, Here is my number one reason for staying on the old modelling experience: The new settings bar does not have lists. I liked the old settings bar. I did not think it was too big. It was never an issue. Removing the names of the different settings and only having the icon saves space, but I like seeing the names!…

Add native search functionality into popup screen for deleting/adding actions/steps in processes
To improve the model building efficiency & experience, my customers would like Anaplan to add a native search functionality into the popup screen where we maintain (deleting/adding) actions/steps in processes. Some of these customers' models include thousands of actions, and so it is not feasible for the model builders to…

Automatically Sort List Dimensions in "Applies To"
The Planual 2.01-11 states that dimension order should remain consistent among modules to ensure faster calculations so that common dimensions are in the same order as the applies to. I know I am able to click into the Applies To section for a module or line item and then click "OK", and that this will re-sort the list…

Subsets as a separate option on the left hand panel similar to LISs
There is a quite a bit of scrolling involved to get to list subsets, especially in large models with lots of them. It will be more efficient to group them together and be accessible with an icon similar to LISS with details of the underlying list presented.

Impact Discovery (Reverse of Drill Down)
Concept: You have entered an adjustment in a cell, you wish to see what line items, cells, items, etc. that are dependent on the entry or are impacted by it. Simply taking the referenced by information and displaying the equations that pull the value and how they change the value (+/-, T/F, Text Change, etc.) Benefits:…

Drag/drop and select multiple for reordering actions in a process
When reordering actions in a process, I would like to be able to drag/drop and also select multiple actions at once, the same way we can when reordering line items for a module. Currently, we can only do 1 action at a time, and move 1 spot at a time using the up/down arrows. This is very tedious and time-consuming when…

Wider "Format" column / column resizing in module blueprint mode
Please make the "Format" column in module blueprint mode much wider. Currently, list-formatted line items with list names of more than a word or two cannot be seen fully, which makes it hard to distinguish between similarly named lists at a glance. The only way to see the full list name is to click into the line item…
