Time Subsets
We would like the ability to create time subsets for more granular time ranges (days, weeks, months), that may not match the current model Time Scale of Years, Quarters, etc.
-
NULL Number Format
Null option for number format. Currently when a number in undefined, it will populate the module as a 0 instead of a blank. A work around is required to convert all of the numbers into text, and then make undefined numbers "N/A". The ROUND(TEXT()) function also causes a large number of unnecessary decimals.
-
Formula for Subsets
Add in a formula functionality to conditionally add items to a list subset, rather than having to manually check a boolean.
-
Custom Format for Lists
Currently all list items default to text. It would be helpful to add them as dates, numbers, etc.
-
Default Home Page to list view
We would like the ability to default the tiles screen to the list view for all of our users. This view is a lot more user-friendly than the tile view, we have had an abundance of requests for model access when the users do not realize that they just need to scroll to the right to see additional pages of tiles.

Customize Model Filters
Consider allowing customers to customize the filter categories. App, Geography, Planning Cycle, Environment, and Business Function do not fit our use cases or model categories.

Introduce sequential lists (Array or Linked list)
As model builder I would like to make use of sequential lists (Array or Linked list) to avoid circular references. This can be useful in many calculations.. Native functions like PREVIOUS() or NEXT() could only be applied on line items which are on the time dimension. Such functions should then also work for the sequential…

Poisson function
My customer needs to calculate the POISSON cumulative results to find out the lambda value that goes above a probability treshold. In a maintenance use case, this is useful for him to statistically determine given a target service level and the past average of incidents how many incidents should occur in the future, and…

Right-click a part in a formula ---> take me to that module / List / etc.
Similar to some other feature requests I've made... 1. Open From Drill Down (delivered) 2. Open From Filter View it would help model building workflow if I could right-click a module or list that appears in a formula and it give me the option to open the module, or show the list. Again, this is so I don't have to leave…

Don't block manual input if a line item doesn't contain all dimensions of the module
Example: We have a model that is based on dimension A and months and contains 2 line items: -Line item 1 (manual input): applies only to dimension A -Line item 2 (has a formula): applies to dimension A and months If we publish this module to a dashboard with month as page selector, it is not possible to change the value of…

Right-Click on an applied filter ---> take me to the module
When Opening a filter, It would be really helpful if I saw a filter I wanted to dig further into and be able to right-click and open the module it's coming from. Currently a user has to back out of the filter view, and go there manually. When there are a few filters I have to screenshot this view temporarily because I…

Show Used in Dashboards on a line item level (similar as with module)
To clean up old line items it is handy to now it hasn't be published to any of the dashboards.

Use process inside another process
We have some instances where we are incorporating multiple actions into more processes. Instead of adding action A,B,C,D,E,F into 4 different processes, we could bundle this into Process X. Process X can then be used in the 4 different processes. This will make the maintenance more convenient. E.g. we can ad action G or…

Display the Action IDs in Actions list
Description of the enhancement required: Display the Action's IDs in Actions list so that Interface (Anaplan Connect or Rest API) can work with action's IDs (not with captions (Action Names)) A story for why they want the enhancement, (how would it help their business process): At the moment, to refer an action by ID we…

Applies To for a module - would be nice to have a search option
Description of the enhancement required: Creating Modules or adjusting the "Applies To" it would be helpful to have a search bar/button. A story for why they want the enhancement, (how would it help their business process): In case you have a lot of lists, it becomes very inconvenient to reapply the module. This change…

Pre-emptive alert for Anaplan function constraints based on total number of cells to be processed
A pre-emptive alert for Anaplan function constraints based on the total number of cells to be processed would be useful to detect issues early in the ALM data transfer process avoiding the synchronization unproductive time until the error or warning message regarding the same kind of effect pops up.
-
LAG function constraints don't allow for some valid scenarios
I would like to submit an enhancement request for the LAG function to be used between time ranges that are not the same but have valid overlap. The constraint that disallows the use of LAG between any line items that do not have the same time range gives the function minimal utility. I understand disallowing instances…

Ability to Set a Character Limit in a Text Field
In certain cases the Name of something that goes into a report can only be so long before it starts to conflict and overlap with something else and make the report unreadable. In other cases the user is expected to be concise and not write a whole dissertation to name something or. I'd like to be able to set a numerical…

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…

Optimizer on rearranging Applies To for optimal performance
In our current models we have been struggling with performance. 1 big impact is the arranging of applies to. It would be great if we have an optimizer that could determine the optimal Applies to for the performance of a given model. This is based a certain constraints from what i understand 1: Size of given list 2: Arrange…

Open the saved view if you save a view
When creating a saved view, it will not open by default, but you need to open the saved view in order to finetune it. It will benefit the model builders, because now a lot of times you create a saved view and you need to remember to open it again before making more changes to the view and continue saving. A lot of times…

Applying DISCO labels to Model Map
I would like to apply the DISCO-methodology to the Model Map. The most efficient way would be to label the Functional Areas to the DISCO. The model map could then be visually sequenced based on the DISCO steps: https://us.v-cdn.net/6037036/img/PLANS_DISCO_33530.jpg?small?v=1.0&px=200 This could improve the value of the…

Line breaks in free text fields
Please add the feature to enable line items and data with free text, with all characters including line feeds. Ctrl+Alt+Enter creates a line feed while entering the data, but it is lost when the data is referenced.

Ability to copy a List
There are occasions when I need to have a list that is similar in structure or content but serves a different purpose in the application or where I need to have different children but similar parents in the same module. In this case my only options are to export the data, create a new list and add the properties and…

Option to **** Formula Error Toasting
Most of the modelers know what is wrong with their formula, the moment they press enter and it starts toating system. There should be an option to **** the error processing in case of formula errors.
-
Day level calendar setting
Is it possible to have a 'day' level setting in the calendar type. We need to plan at a greater level of time sensitivity than is currently available. At present, we use Anaplan for weekly and monthly - it would be great if we could do the same for daily too.
-
Apply module defaults for timescales
I would like the option to use the "-" setting for time settings in the module blueprint, as per the Applies to Since I rarely use subsidiary views, if I need to change the time from, say week to month, I then have to apply this change to all line items, whereas using a default would save time
-
Option to Right-Click action button ---> take me to that action in the Actions List
As a model builder, I would like to be able to get from a dashboard button directly to the action in the Actions list. It would be really helpful to have a right-click "Open in Action List" option somewhat equivalent to a module's "open source" module option but for actions. This would be a far better than the current…

Advanced Search: Allow use of Boolean Operators etc. in model search
I use the search functionality in Anaplan a lot because otherwise it's difficult to find things. It would be helpful to use operators (like in a google search) to find things. Here's an example: Pretend I have a dashboard named "David's XYZ Extravagant Dashboard - Cost Sheet" When searching, if I miss a single character…
