Enhanced Hotkey support across Anaplan
Some users prefer mouse, while others prefer hotkeys, and some like a mix somewhere between. Curently Anaplan feels 95% built around mouse-users, while keyboard users have a very low number of hotkeys to fall back on. Anaplan users would get a lot benefit if the platform considered hotkey use cases to be equally as…

Module Selection for Line Item Subset With >1000 Modules
We have encountered a bug where if there are more than 1000 modules in a model, the panel where you select a module(s) to assign to a line item subset does not work. There is a workaround available (provided by Anaplan support to us about a year ago) where we can look at the web-page elements and find the code for the…

Summary of Visible Items Only
Note: please send Kudos to this post to get it on the roadmap. Please can either model builders or end users have the option to toggle the summary method used on lists where it is possible to view the total of visible items only. For example, consider a list Countries in a module with one line item, Revenue. Countries…

Add Syntax Highlighting
As a Model Builder, I would like to have "syntax highlighting" when I create my formulas in order to improve readability.
-
Reverse Profile function
It would be good for the PROFILE function to have the option to work going backwards as well as forward in time,
-
REQUEST: allow the model builder to change the name of an Import action before hitting Import.
Save them from needing to find that import in the Actions list and change the name there.

NOW Function
Use case: As a user, I want to display the current time (e.g. 9/12/2018 5:00AM) in a cell. This should behave similar to the "NOW" function in Excel. Business case: When a user presses a button, we want to display the last time the button was pressed.

Setup Number summary to none by default
Today, when we create a new line item, the number format is the only to be with summary "Sum" by default. We like to have none by default as for all other formats.

Configure Default Number Format for Entire Model
It would be nice to be able to set a default number format for an entire model. We use the same number format across all modules and models so we're spending a significant amount of time modifying this setting from the current default. It would be very beneficial to set this format upfront. I saw this idea labeled as "Not…
-
Capability to define a Default Value
-------- Edit : There was a problem with the body, below the good explanation 🙂 -------- As a Workspace Admin, I would like to be able to define a default value for some Line Items (list, number or boolean). Ex: When a user adds a new row, I would like that some Line Item to be automatically filled with a default value.…

Scaling a number in number format options
In Anaplan it is not possible to scale a number. i.e. show the value of a number in Millions or Thousands. Instead we create a scaling line item and divide all the related line items by this. It is a repetitive work. In New UX I have noticed this when bringing numbers from the source. Scaling option can be accommodated in…

Properties and Subsets Enabled For User List
Quite literally what the title says. I am able to point and click on the different features just like a regular list, or I can apply the User List for specific roles to reduce sparsity. There are advanced methods of data entry, where validation is done up front, preventing bad data from entering the data set, that could…

New Model Experience: Open Model from Manage Models
Not the highest priority item in the world but it would be good that when opening models from the manage models box that it opens up into the New Model Experience as that's what i've selected as my option on the homepage. Hopefully this will be being fixed as part of the migration to New Model Experience being the default.

In the drill down window being able to filter on values for non blank or non than zero
Hi Anaplan, It would be amazing if within the drill down view you were able to filter on a list of values for items that are non blank or non zero. So for example if you're looking at a calculation with a dimension that has 1000 items you can see only the relevant items with non zero or non blank values that contributing…

Collapse Saved Views in Contents Panel
Add the ability to collapse saved views in the contents panel similar to how you are able to collapse functional areas. If every module has a few saved views the contents panel becomes hard to navigate.

NMX - Make it easier to enter edit mode when opening the new formula editor
Now that the New Modeling Experience (NMX) has launched the 'preview mode' functionality whilst working with a formula, users have to explicitly click the 'Edit' button to be able to edit the formula. This idea is requesting the ability to enter edit mode more quickly with the new formula editor open in preview mode (for…
-
REQUEST: setting to always show the Formula Edit bar when in blueprint
Allow the MB to turn the Formula Preview Mode ON for all Blueprint views. This would be a persistent toggle. So anytime you switch to BV you would see this at the bottom.
-
MX SUGGESTION: Give the MB a ‘x’ option during this import to List step.
It can be finicky clearing any fields you don’t want filled. Would be nice if there was an ‘x’, perhaps to the far left of the field selector?
-
SUGGESTION: Improvements to Delete from list using selection
When defining Delete from list using selection… can we consider adding:* The ability to use Tab to move from the Action Name field to the Delete Items from: field * Same request for moving to Selected using: * Allow the MB to type any portion of the Line Item in the Selected using: field instead of a need to type…
-
MX REQUEST: better handling when opening a Module from the Line Items view
Allow the Open button in the Line Items view of Modules to open the module that holds the currently selected Line Item. Right now the MB must scroll up to find the title for the module and then click Open . As some modules have many line items this can be frustrating. Example: In order to open the Module that holds this…
-
REQUEST: allow this search result field to show more text in the results
Maybe just move the ‘Object Type’ column to the far right? Or put it before the ‘Name’ column as we know the max width the ‘Object Type’ column could show. The names of the modules are getting cut off. I know we can't have an infinite amount. But there's some white space that we could use.
-
SUGGESTION: Ability close all tabs to the left/right of the selected tab
Allow the Model Builder to close all tabs to the left/right of the selected tab via right click menu. It would be part of the existing ‘Close’ options.
-
MX SUGGESTION: better tab position control
Allow the Model Builder to move a tab to the front/end of the list of open tabs via right click menu. It would be options beyond the ‘Close’ options.
-
REQUEST: Ability to add/remove dimensions from the ‘Pivot’ modal while in Model view.
Give the MB the ability to add/remove dimensions from the ‘Pivot’ modal while in Model view. It seems like such an organic place to be able to do it. Similar to initial Model setup. Could also help to avoid the awkward command click method for multi-selection in the Blueprint ‘applies to’ method.
-
MX REQUEST: support colored blocks in Formula Editor
Allow the builder to select if the colored text in a formula is colored text or a colored block. the colored blocks would be AWESOME! Mockup: The purple would be the same as the font color was. just an inversion. like highlighting.
-
MX REQUEST: allow the user to archive portions of a MODEL!
Often I find myself taking a standard demo model and building completely new structures for a specific customer/demo. I start from a standard demo model so I can reuse structures and concepts from it. Then, when I am done, I want to keep only the new stuff and any basic structures/data that I ended up using.It would be…
-
MX REQUEST: Model Search work with ‘Applies To’ section of a module.
Allow the Model Search feature to give results where the search term shows up in the ‘Applies To’ section of a module. I could see that this level of result could get thick. Maybe it is a flag the user can check to say they want this in the results?
-
MX Request: support this modeling sequence
* Edit the formula of a Line Item that is formatted as a Number * Enter a formula, the output of which will be Text * Submit the formula * Be presented with a modal that informs me that this formula, as entered, will not work in this Line Item * The modal gives me two options: Cancel so I can modify the formula to result…
-
MX Suggestion: add some formatting to the drill-in view.
This formatting would signal to the user what lines were actually used to derive the result. Here is a mockup: I highlighted in green the portion that was actually needed to get the result. The idea would be to make these first two lines bold or something.
