'List Item' Scope on Formulae
Would it be possible to implement a 'List Item' scope similar to Version Scope against line item formulae within Anaplan. My thinking here would be to allow some list items to be driven by inputs, and other list items to be driven by a formula. This would be a huge enhancement, but in than vein I am unsure as to how…

Filtering a list based on a property
When in a list grid view, enable a list to be filtered on a property. This is only possible by creating a module using the list and creating line item linked to properties.

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.

More Shortcuts
It would be great if Anaplan supported more shortcuts. In particular, shortcuts that would enable model builders to change the formats of line items instantly. E.g. if a model builder hits B over the format cell, it will instantly change to boolean. M for time period months, T for text. Shortcuts are extremely useful and…

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.…

Open a Module in "Line Items" tab by selecting a line item (not just a module)
When I can't remember where I saw a particular line item, I go to Settings ---> Modules ---> Line Items and search for it. When I find it, it would be very natural to just click "Open" in the header. However Anaplan only allows this open button to work if you have the MODULE name it belongs to selected. So I have to scroll…

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…

Create a number of items in numbered list
Where we use the create action to add an individual item, could we have a break where it asks for how many items to add, much like when doing it in the list itself. This will help to reduce the number of blocking actions as a user hits the button once instead of 10 times and may help in not having to pre populate with…

When trying to work in Anaplan I find there to be a lot of "dead ends", meaning I have find where I want to go, but I have to stop, back out and go there in an unintuitive way that breaks my workflow. The "Used in Dashboards" and "Referenced By" columns are helpful to trace where things are used, but I still have to leave…

No way to get last month of quarter in one line item
As an example, if the first month of the Fiscal Year is Mar 15, I want "May 15" returned because that's the last month of the quarter.
