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.…

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.

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 aggregation over time dimension
Description of the enhancement: Currently if the Source has a time dimension then the result must also when using SUM. Users would like to be able to aggregate over time dimension. How this would help our business processes: It would remove the need to do the following workaround. If you have: Result = A.a[Sum A.b] Result…

Ignore Timescale as a dimension if Time formatted mapping line item is used for aggregation
I ran into the issue when I needed to pull the data from the module with a timescale as a one of dimensions to another module that also contains timescale as dimension. I used time formatted line item in the source module for aggregation but it's been ignored in the Result module and error message box has been appeared.…

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…

Allow customers to reset list entity index by themselves
Description of the enhancement required Allow customers to perform list entity index reset for their lists that encounter "IllegalArgumentException: Maximum entity index value is 999999999" error. A story for why they want the enhancement, (how would it help their business process) Anaplan support needs to cooridate with…

Filter History by Users
With growing number of changes being recorded in the model history it becomes very difficult to analyze the exported file of Historical Changes esp when we want to track changes for a month or two atleast as the file can become quite big to play around with. Hence Proposing an idea of having an ability for a model builder…

Have total in summaries to only include sums of only the items users have access to
It would be useful to have a sum that only included values from list items the user has read access to. So if you have a list with items A, B and C, and one user only has access to A and B, they would still be able to see a total of their view (A and B) . Why this would help: When using selective access, not all views roll…

Extend the number of future years
For the purpose of calculating lease contracts in IFRS 16 it's sometimes needed to have wide time ranges in the model. Currently, the amount of future years is limited up to 50 years and past years up to 20 years (link). This means you have a maximum time range of 70 years. We experience that some lease contracts extend 70…

Anaplan Model Builder Line Item Diagram View
As a model builder, it would be great to have a "diagram view" available when reviewing code/line items. This concept originates from an actuarial modeling software called "Prophet". Basically a model builder would be able to enable/disable diagram view. If enabled, a precedent/dependent tree would appear at the top of the…

Ability to view a column in module blueprint showing "Used in Filter", similar to "referenced by"
Similar to how a column for "referenced by" can show me other modules where a line item is used, and "used in dashboard" can show me where it's on dashboards, as a modelbuilder it would be helpfult to have a way to tell where a line item is being used to drive a filter.

View a module's blueprint view side-by-side with its data view
I would like to be able to see the changes I make while in blueprint view of a module affecting its data view in real-time. Currently when I change something in blueprint (ie. a summary method) and have to toggle back and forth to see its affect. Unfortunately, depending on how far down in the list of line items the one…

Need a way troubleshoot a formula by stepping through it piece-by-piece
Much like most coding languages or even excel's formulas, to aid in writing complex code / formulas, there needs to be some way for a developer / builder to see how the individual components of it resolve one by one. I'd like a way to step through a formula to see where it's going wrong, and see values of the components so…

Allow the Create action to work with a numbered list that has no parent hierarchy
The Create action only works with numbered lists that have a parent hierarchy. My numbered list does not have or need a parent hierarchy so to satisfy this rule I have to create a dummy list (e.g. a List called All with a single member called All) and made that the Parent of my numbered list. (I also checked whether I…

Add formula drill down in NUX
Suggest to add formula drill down to NUX. When working with the NUX, there is no formula drill down option. This is a key feature for our users as they need to see how the numbers are being calculated when doing root cause analysis. At the same time, the specific values going into the formula should be shown as they are…
-
Ability to enter decimals without leading zeros via new UX forms
When we are using the forms in the new UX to create list items, the form with a number formatted line item is not letting the user enter decimal numbers without leading zeros ".05". When entering the number directly into the cell, it accepts it but when using the form, it gives an error saying it is not a valid number.…

Calculation Function / Formula context specific suggestions
When typing in a calculation function, show a dropdown box that provides possible matches Example 1: In the formula box when you type "Da" a tooltip suggests "DATE, DAY, DAYS, DAYSINMONTH, DAYSINYEAR.." etc Example 2 (List/Module specific): When typing "Employees. " a tooltip suggests your available Properties or Line…

Ability to move to different Workspace from the model itself
Current State Scenario: If you are working on a model and you wish to move to another model in different workspace you have to go back to Home screen then go to Manage Models-> Select Workspace ->Select Model Idea: From the current model we hit Manage Models->Select Workspace-> Select Model. This eliminates the need to go…
-
Ability to customize Dimensions for line item summaries
I would like the ability to customize the dimensions across which the automatic line item summary will apply. Currently, we can only specify Summary (for all selected dimensions) and Time Summary. This means that for multi-dimensional line items, if I need a summary over one dimension I am forced to summarize over all…
-
Tree View not available due to large lists
Tree View have to be available even if the list is large. Anaplan could show it on different pages, but it's a big limitation to the client if they can't see the tree view list.
-
Adjust Size of List Items in Columns
We have an option of adjusting our Row Size, this is useful when we don't want to show the dimension of the module. 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…

Click through Formula
Formulas should be clickable. Ex: If formula for one line item is as follows: Sales.Actuals When we hover over Sales or Actuals then it should become underlined and clicking on Sales should automatically open Sales module.

The ability to see entire Note, Applies to, Referenced By fields inside blueprint view
It would be great ot see the entire Note section in the blueprint view without having to copy and paste it into another tool, double click into the note section, etc. Double clicking into the note section isn't ideal in Standard (Non-Deployed) models, as it can lead to the accidental editing/deletion of the note field. One…
