Error message generator

Anaplan Model Calendar - Roll-up Weeks to Months
Anaplan's model calendar rolls up days into weeks and months into quarters but does not roll up weeks into months. As a result of this, June 2020 has 5 weeks: w/c Jun1, Jun 8, Jun 15, Jun 22 and Jun 29. However, w/c Jun 29 has 2 days in June and 5 days in July - and the entire week gets included in July instead of June.…

Curated tips section on Anapedia
I think it could be a good idea to have a curated tips section at the bottom of each Anapedia page. These will be things people have found work but are not specifically stated as working in the entry in Anapedia. These could then help for the basis for Updates to the entry in the future. These could be based on entries…

Ability to Define Custom Weeks pattern for Each Quarter differently in Model Time
Currently Anaplan allows only to select one Week Pattern from 3 available to apply across all quarters in a Fiscal Year Time Calendar (https://help.anaplan.com/anapedia/Content/Modeling/Dimensions/Weeks_4-4-5,_4-5-4_or_5-4-4.htm) Example - Pick any one week configuration pattern from 4-4-5, 5-4-4, or 4-5-4 for all…

Display Name selection from the drop down - only filtering text and list formatted properties
Is it possible to provide a Display Name selection in the form of a drop-down for a Numbered list in the configure tab of a list? This addition would actually complete the configure tab in totality.

Have DCA drive when items are included in SUM formula
During our Territory Assignment exercise, the type of account dictates whether a particular rep type can be assigned to the account. We facilitate this via DCA. However, because the account types are sometimes in flux during the assignment process, a rep could be assigned to an account that they would later be ineligible…

Option to Tie Time Range to Current Period
In an effort to reduce sparsity and improve in every aspect of "PLANS" from the planual, having the ability to attach time ranges to the model's current period would help in so many ways. As an example, in a model set as a "Calendar Months/Quaters/Years" Calendar Type, adding time Ranges that are Current Year, Current Year…

Model Map - Show Filters dependencies
As a Model Builder, I need to see the dependencies between calculation, input or reprting modules and filters modules when filters are used. The same could be useful for DCA as well ideally with different colours than the calculations and with the possibility to display / hide those links I need this because : - Anaplan…

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…

Show only transactional data combinations
Since we will be having hyper models enabling us to have bigger spaces, it would be nice to have the functionality of a toggle to show the data master data combinations with data only. Example 100 Customers, 100 Products but we only have 10 % of the combinations with actual data. So a module containing these list items…

Ability to select multiple models to change the mode
Hi Anaplan, It would be great if we have a feature to select multiple models in the Manage Models page to change the mode at one go. For instance, if I want to archive 20 test models created by my team mates, then it would be easy if I have an option to click a Boolean to select the models and change the mode from Standard…

Input Functional Area and Notes in the Create Module Dialogue Box
As a model builder, I need to be able to easily apply Anaplan best practices such as assigning a functional area and providing a brief description of the purpose of my newly created module so my model is auditable and it is easy for other model builders to work on it in the future. Currently, we allow model builders to…

Dynamic List Management Access
Being an Anaplan user, I would like to dynamically set list management access without admin license. Similarly to WorkFlow and DCA, it would be great to have an ability to dynamically limit add/delete/copy actions on the list for the users, who have write access to it. As per now, taking, for example, Workflow: Imagine we…

SELECT command does not work with Version name having number in its name
Hi, I was working to find products ASP for a Version with a variance of 10% between product ASP in other Version. For example, product ASP outlier with version BOQ(Beginning of Quarter) works well unlike EOQ1 (It consists of text and number). 1st formula works well unlike the 2nd one which gives Inval. I believe its a bug…

Version formula
Hi! It would be great if version formula feature would be applicable not only to line item subsets but also to ordinary formats as in case of large number of versions and difference between approaches used in each of the version it will save a lot of time and enable more flexible modelling.

improving filters and tags in manage model page and Anaplan UI
I am posting this on behalf of Jason First, design a way for our model builders to tag their models with attributes like Model Owner, Model Purpose Category, or other built in attributes like Environment (as in Picture 2 below). Second, design a way to filter or sort models based on these tags in the Model Management pane…

Move "Refresh" button from Edit Menu, onto Main Blueprint Toolbar
This is a quick one, but I was wondering if we could move the Refresh button out of the Edit Menu and into the main module blueprint toolbar? When I explain it to new folks, they always find it un-intuitive to have to open the Edit Menu, before they can Refresh.

Dynamic Charts in ALM
I keep having issues where I create a dynamic chart using a time filter (eg. Rolling 13 month filter) however when publishing it to live models it stays static which causes some unnecessary maintenance each month. Can this be fixed??

Summary settings: total sum
Hi All, It would be interesting to have an option "Total Sum", that only aggregates the value for the ultimate parent in the hierarchy. This would almost completely remove the need to create flat lists with a lot of benefits: - less complexity; - no mappings between lists; - easier/more intuitive to model While retaining…

Select levels of hierarchy that are applicable for a module/line item
Hi all, Different teams at a client tend to work different. So a hierarchy might consist of 5 levels, but different teams tend to only use 2 or 3 of those levels for their day to day business. It would be a nice option if we were able to select the levels within a hierarchy that are applicable for that module or line item.…

Increase the character limit of the MAILTO function
The MAILTO function currently has a limit of around 2000 characters and any greater than this will prevent the message from being opened in your chosen mail app. This is normally fine for standard English alphabetic characters, but can cause issues for non-English alphabetic characters. For example the Japanese character キ…

Why is the line item format selectable?
Why do we need to set a format for the line item on creation, can it not be a read-only field and set based on the formula/data. Anaplan knows when we get it wrong, why not just set to what it is supposed to be?

Ability to get to know "Published on" App/Page feature
Since we are moving away from classic dashboarding slowly and NUX being the future of reporting in Anaplan we may need to know where the modules have been published on NUX. Hence proposing an idea of having an ability to get to know about the "Published on Page/App" feature in Anaplan Models. It needs to be precise to tell…
