New Model Experience - Formula Editor Function Tool-Tip
To further enhance the modeling experience, particularly for new modelers, having a hovering tool tip when typing parameters within a function would be useful. It could be structured such that after typing the start of any function, a hovering display lists the required/optional parameters needed. As an example, typing…

Remember search criteria in Model Search
It would be really helpful if having done a search in Model Search and opened something up if the search criteria for last search remained for a while or till next login. I so often seem to find myself opening what I think I'm looking for only to find it was not the case but I then have to go back and start the search…

Model Optimising and Housekeeping
I'd like to have new features in Anaplan where it will check your whole model and return the following: * Module/Lists which are not references in actions/dashboards and therefore can be removed without impact * Line items which are duplicated in other modules and are using the same dimensions (therefore duplicated can be…

Allow for 'Invalid' formulas during model changes
When model building often we get requirements that require changing the dimensions of a line item / changing hierarchy levels etc. Basically things that will break existing formulas. To make these changes to an existing model I'll laboriously go about copying formulas that will break somewhere else, carefully making a note…

Built in notepad/clipboard
Hi Anaplanners, This time i am coming with an idea of having a kind of manageable clipboard/notepad built into the development UI. Performing development work i usually have some additional tools like notepad or excel opened on side to able to store formulas or mappings that i want to use in next few mins (example is a…

Need a way to identify line Items being used as Filters.
There needs to be a way to identify line items that are being used as Filter in same module or any other module, This would be totally helpful while deleting line items that are no longer required.

Time Subsets
I would like to see shorter time periods that we could control for example rolling 90 days, 16 weeks etc. Realizing there would need to be some sort of trigger of control set a start point. A potential user story I need to be able to solve is: I plan by month but need a 90 day outlook As part of that 90 day outlook I need…

MAX() and MIN () functions over time periods
Currently you can compare time periods using operators '=', '>' and '<' which is great and very useful. But when it comes to comparing more than two dates, it becomes a nightmare to find a MAX or MIN. Unlike with number or dates, you either have to go through countless IF THEN ELSE cases which is probably impractical or…

Make the 'Referenced By' section of a Module Blueprint CLICKABLE
I want to be able to do the following: * Open a Module in Blueprint view * Scroll to the right to see the 'Referenced By' field of a Line Item * CLICK on this field and have one of two things happen:* If there is only one Line Item in the 'Reference By' the module with that Line Item opens (in Blueprint Mode) and (bonus…

Allow for Copy/Paste of 'Reverenced By' to work in 'Model Search'
The new 'Model Search' is awesome! I use it all the time! I have noticed that it cannot handle a few search prompts. One of them is if the user pastes a full reference for a Line Item. An example might be 'CALC Store O4 Month Results'.Store Hours Threshold Pasting this in Model Search produces no hits. But the ideal result…

Remember formula bar settings in new modelling experience
It'd be great if Anaplan could remember formula bar preferences either globally at an account level, or by workspace. At the moment, you will perhaps prefer to set the formula bar to the side view, with a specific width, and when re-opening a new module it will be reset to below the data and at default height. This means,…

Formula Editor with AI suggestions
As a SA, when we perform the model review, one of the most common issues are badly written formula. MAT analysis does provide a list of potential issues. It would be nice to add another button in addition to apply as Suggest, so it can warn the users when they try to create complex formula. Even better, given the vast…

Quick Summarise Data
One question I always ask myself when exporting data from Anaplan into Excel for further analysis is why am I feeling the need to do this and what improvements could Anaplan make to negate the need in some instances to export data to excel. I believe adding some fairly simple functionality to quickly summarise data by a…

Allow the Modules List to be searched with fuzzy logic, the saem as the Model Search function
The new fuzzy search method available in Model Search is excellent! I use it to rapidly jump to another module. But we still must use the modules tab to copy modules. I now find myself trying to use fuzzy logic when using search in the modules tab. Could we please get this implemented here?

Designate a dummy module as a Group, show alternate formatting for clearer model building experience
Similar to how you can set a line item to different formats to help readability and organization, I would like to have similar functionality in the module view window. Organizing the module view in a similar way would be really helpful as module count grows in large models. Currently the "best practice" is to create a…

TEXTLIST summary for line items with format set to Text
As Model Builder, I want to have additional choice - TEXTLIST - when selecting summary for line items formatted as Text. When TEXTLIST is selected, summary should join/concatenate lower level data. Preferably, joining should be done using separator defined by user (as different appilcations may need comma, colon, dot,…

Display a list of existing saved views when using "Save As"
When a model builder selects "Save As" in a module, it would be really helpful to see a list (dropdown?) of saved views already available for that module. This would help * When a model builder is trying to overwrite an existing saved view; they wouldn't have to type out the exact view name character-for-character, instead…

Prior Year YTD total option for Time Ranges
Hi, We have a large reporting requirement for reporting versus prior year for reporting month and Year to date. The month is easily achievable but if we want to create views that compare Prior year to date versus current year to date its a lot more fiddly. Alot of our monthly reporting is done through the Excel Add in and…
