Automatic update of Model names in Source model mapping when model names are changed
Hi, Model names in Source model mapping should automatically update when source model names are changed. Also, the name within the Import Data Sources should automatically get updated based on changed Model names. Can we have this feature? Currently, this is not happening and it is confusing when we debug old actions.…

Pre-calculation check for duplicate line items
I am sure the acute pain felt when locking-up the model for simply creating a duplicate line item is felt by many model builders. Please could we have a simple check (this already happens elsewhere in the model e.g. actions) that ensures there are no duplicate line items before the model is calculated/refreshed? It only…

Adjust Size of List Items in Columns

There are cases when we don't want to show Rows as well as Columns of the module like the typical 2-D/excel way of displaying things. Hence Proposing an idea of Having an ability to adjust the Size of the…

'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.

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…

Breakback function by selected Line Item
Hi Team, It will be great to have an option to select the Line Item which will be taken as a source to calculate phasing for Breakback function. At the moment split is done based on the items, in which I input amount. Unfortunately in some business cases it's required to use another metric for phasing. This can be useful…

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…

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…

Search model and Display results across Actions, Modules, Dashboards, Lists in one screen
It is common to use the exact wording between actions, modules, dashboards etc., however in order to see the results of items from these different groupings, currently I have leave a view (say the module view) to go to another view (actions) and search the results again (which also resets my search from the last view).…

Top 10 filters on tables
Description of the enhancement: Top 10 filters on tables. We need to create top 10 tables that are able to be filtered by different criteria. Today the only alternative we found is to make a calculation for the "ranking" of the items in the table, but this is static information, so it is not dynamic when filtered. How this…

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. This is my formula (on a line item formatted as Month and no Timescale): FINDITEM(Time, NAME(PERIOD(END(PARENT(TIME.'Apr 15'))))) However, this returns 'Apr 15' due to this in Anapedia:…
