Source Models mapping Vs Import Data Sources/Imports
Hi Team, When we rename the model and remapped to the same model with a new name in Model Settings-->Source Models, it is not reflecting dynamically in Import Data Sources/Imports. To see the new model name, we have to manually re-map the Import actions. It would be great if we have this feature in Anaplan- As soon as the…

Update Subsets dynamically - Formula driven Boolean
It would be nice to have the subsets updated dynamically using a formula driven boolean linking to the subsets as a formula, just like how we have the option to link Display Name to a formula in a module. This would certainly eliminate much needed efforts of running the action every time when we have to update the subset.…

Additional modes for Formula Scope
Whilst the current method for formula scope encompasses the existing options (Actual, All Versions, All Versions Except Actual and Current), there is sometimes a need for formula scope to be applicable to specific versions outside of this scope - For instance, side loading of a budget. Whilst Add Version Formula covers…

Include Row Labels in Modules
Similar to Include Row Labels within the export dialogue, it would be really useful if model builders could display list properties in modules. This would be useful in both the NUX and classic dashboards. Illustrating with an example: consider the list hierarchy L1 Regions, L2 Countries, L3 Cities. The L3 Cities list has a…

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…

Reorder button in Manage Views
As a model builder I would like to have the "Reorder" button in the "Manage Views" section of a module so that I can re-arrange my views quickly and easily. On big models with many views this could be a bit tricky. However, I agree that if builders keep on top of it as views are created and use naming conventions, this…

Adjust Column Widths in Blueprint Mode
Being able to adjust column widths in Blueprint mode would be great. Rather than having to open an 'Applies to' menu, format menu, or copy and paste notes, and formula references, it would be great to adjust column widths in the blueprint mode. Alternatively, it would be helpful to have a "view" window or cell (similar to…

Select a specific version when creating lookup formulas
Hi, It would be great if we could have formulas where we can specify a version (like it works for actuals) or if we could apply any line item to a specific version.

After logging-in user continues to linked-to model
Annoyance: URL link provided for specific model > user clicks it > user not signed in to Anaplan so taken to log-in screen > after logging-in, user is taken to models dashboard, *does not* continue on to model at original link. All other tools used by me at Anaplan (with the frustrating exception of SFDC) would drop you…

Ability to rename a line item without breaking the import mapping
Description of the enhancement: If a line item which is used as the source of an import is renamed, its mapping is removed and the action must be re-mapped. To re-create: * Setup an import from "LineItemA" in ModuleOne to LineItemB in ModuleTwo. The line items will need manually mapping since they have different names. *…

Allow order of CUMULATE function to be defined by the user
The CUMULATE function when used against a list, currently accumulates in the original list order even when the list has been reordered. Anapedia states this is how the function is meant to work, but I would like it to take into account if the list has been reordered, and cumulate in the new order. Description of the…

Formula Break-Down Without Space Penalty
Currently, to adhere to best practices it is beneficial to break out parts of a complex calculation into separate line items for logic traceability and audit-ability. However, in many models we're constrained by space and can effectively reduce space (especially in large multi-dimensioned modules) by combining logic in…
