Users List as a basic Dimension
Hello, I ran to the several issues when I needed to calculate some values on the Top Users level. * Users list itself doesn't have Top Level and there isn't an option to add it. Therefore you can't get Total number for given line item that applies to Users List. I was trying to do some workarounds (creation of Dummy Users…

Ability to Comment Code
The ability to put comment blocks and indents within your formulas, so as to allow model builders to better document and format their code within the models for readability and understanding purposes. This will help align Anaplan's language back to the basic features all other development languages used in an enterprise…

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…

Add MEDIAN Function to Anaplan
As we expand our use cases within our org, we are faced with more and more times that we need to calculate a Median within a data set (ex. Revenue, Median Deal Value, Median Salary, etc.). There is a quite elaborate workaround that is posted on the community, which has been a lifesaver, but it takes up to 13 line items to…

Increase 1 million list item limit for Order list action
Requesting to increase the limit of 1 million list item count for Order list action. Currently we will get the following error when list item is over 1 million: Cannot Run ActionThe number of items in the list (1000001) exceeds the maximum allowed (1000000)

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…

Current Date and Time
It would be great to have a function to get current date and time. Timezone settings could be common for all users and maintained in the settings section

Increase the size limit of notes
A description of the enhancement required: The notes on line items is 250 characters which isn’t enough. A story for why the enhancement is required (specifically, how would it aid the business process): When you write a note on a formula, you have to explain WHAT is does, WHY you did it, HOW it’s used etc etc, 250 isn’t…

Drag & Drop Manage Views
The current process for managing saved views for modules is a bit time consuming. If you have a lot of saved views for a module and you need to sort them out. You need to click each saved view and either click "Move Up" or "Move Down", then it would still take time for the system to refresh. So imagine if you have 10 or…

Multi-layer sort
Would be very useful to have a multi-layer sort (not filter) like in Excel i.e. Sort by column A alphabetically, then by column B, then by C. Acknowledging the workaround to concatenate the desired fields into a text line item and sort by that, but to me a publicised workaround is always a pointer to a needed/desired…

Validation Button in Formula Editor
I would like to request validation functionality be added to the formula editor in Anaplan. On large models if a formula is entered incorrectly you can wait 8, 10, 12 minutes for Anaplan to process the incorrect formula. I have seen other application in this space have a validation button for formulas which allow you to…

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…

Avoid the roll back every time the formula is wrong
Every time we create a wrong formula the system runs a roll back that takes about 8 minutes!! We would like to avoid this roll back... it takes so much time during the development phase! They could just send a warning message!

Referenced by for filters
I would like to see details of whether a module or line item is actively in use as a filter. When a line item is referenced by a formula elsewhere the target line item is displayed in the reference by column. Can this be replicated for line items which are used in all types of filter? This will help significant when…

IRR function to operate on a specified time period ranges
Hello team I would propose an idea of IRR function enhancement to operate on more dynamic environment and respect Anaplan time dimension in the same way as TIMESUM function. Why it is necessary? For IRR calculation when the sign of the cash flows changes more than once, for example when positive cash flows are followed by…

Alias Names for Time, Versions, Modules, Line Items and Dashboards
Hi Anaplan, It would be great for Anaplan to allow users to create alias names for: time, versions, modules, dashboard, list and lineitems. Thanks, Usman

Ability to select versions as a list formatted line item for use in lookup statements
Versions are useful as they allow switchover functionality enabling a user to both enter a forecast on a line and see actuals in the same line item. However, comparing versions to eachother (any version to any other version dynamically) requires a "Versions List" and logic to engage that list with the Version you want to…

Add Folders for Modules and Lists
Similar to the idea posted here, but with this idea could be a possible solution? * Add folders to object contents (e.g. module, list, and actions). * Allow the creation of sub-folders. It goes without saying, but this would really improve model organisation, especially for larger models. The functionality could be similar…

Dates in Timesum
Timesum formula currently works with time periods. When the granularity of the data is Days, the formula cannot return anything (although it does not generate an error). The idea here is to enable Timesum to also work with Dates so that we can apply this formula to more granular use cases.
