Isfirstoccurrence - Argument for whether to consider Case-Sensitivity
I think it would be a better option to have as a model builder. Currently, Isfirstoccurrence deals with Case-Sensitive data as separate occurrences for eg. NA and na would both be seen as separate occurrences. There are many cases where, as a model-builder, You don't want this to happen. So, having an argument to confirm…

Button to Add another / new dimension after creating the module
As a model builder it would be nice to have a button to add dimension to the module and also to the line item after one has created the module. At the moment we can add the dimension to the module through the applies to section of the blueprint. It would be nice to have a window of dimension screen that is shown when we…

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…

Number Formatting - Round Formula
Currently the Round Formula can be applied only on specific lines or calculations. Would be nice to have an option to set Number Rounding at 'Number settings' apart from Number Format Display.

Support of basic excel functions like RAND, RANDBETWEEN, RANDARRAY
It would be nice to have these Random number generating functions. These functions revery useful to generate some test and demo data, rather than inputting numbers and copy forward or importing from an excel. Can all be used for other purposes that I can not think of now.

Improve List Item Deletion
Improve the list item deletion within Anaplan so that if a model builder selects 'Delete All' from the delete dialogue when there are vast numbers of list items the model builder is prevented. Doing so would prevent model and workspace lock ups. To explain this further: Consider a list with 1,000,000 items. If you attempt…

Add XOR formula
Title says it all, a XOR formula would be really helpful and reduce formula length when trying to test an exclusive or. For those unfamiliar, here is the logic table for XOR. It acts as an OR however if both inputs are TRUE, then XOR returns false.

Improve FINDITEM() when used with Time
Similar to improving imports with time periods (Idea Link), it would be great if the FINDITEM() formula was tweaked when working with Time, to make the formula return time periods for strings like Jan-20. Reason for asking (lifted from my previous post in the Idea Link): The standard excel format for Month-Year is MMM-YY.…

Drill Down View Enhancements
Drill downs in Anaplan Modules should have a feature for checking what each part of the formula written does. For example if there is a If condition with a nested loop with multiple formulas and conditions in it, then there should be a provision to select what each condition does regardless of the condition being True or…

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…

Copy/Import Line Item Formats
To provide self-service modeling we need to allow users to not only add new line items to a module but also to change/update the formats. It would be nice to be able to import line item formats as well. Line items can be imported but then only a model builder can change/set the format. For example: I want to give my users…

Hide List Property Columns when view is on Dashboards such as the 'Parent' or 'Code' or propety
Hi Anaplan, It would be really helpful if it were possible to hide the 'Parent' 'Code' or any property columns on list views published on dashboards. This is to prevent any destructive inputs such as changing the hierarchy by accident. Thanks, Usman

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.

Use SUM Rules Dimensioned by Users for Source Data not Dimensioned by Users
I recently posted a question on the forums in relation to a workaround for a bug in the LOOKUP formula. I wholeheartedly feel like the LOOKUP bug (where it doesn't work for parent items that are in the same list as the leaf-level members) should be fixed. And I recognize that there are some workarounds available (as…

Format Date Fields so as to include the Day Name
Currently in Anaplan there is no way to change the format of the date to include the Short name of the day such as Mon for Monday without creating a custom timescale as a numbered list and then defining it in the Description of the Item. I have an instance where I need to provide more details on a date for the scheduling…

Ability to set different summary options for each list a line item applies to
Currently, at a line item level, it is possible to set a specific summary option for Time. It would be beneficial in terms of space and performance to be able to do so for each list a line item applies to. For example, we often have a list called "scenario" with a top level item so that we can create scenarii by "copy…

Single-precision numeric format option
Number-formatted line items and properties use a double-precision representation internally, and at least double precision during calculations. They are specified in the IEEE754 standard as a signed binary floating point format with 52 bit significand and 11-bit exponent, allowing a range of 2.2*10^-308 .. 1.8*10^308 and a…
