Allow specific list grouping within the Admin Settings Panel
At present , the Admin settings panel used by model builders to create and build new lists for their modules and driving functions do not have the specific list grouping feature. Under Lists and Roll-Ups , we only have General Lists acting as the parent for all lists within the model. To create a better understanding of…

Synchronize to Specific Level of Hierarchy
Ability to select a level of the hierarchy to show and have synchronization based on selection. Ability to have separate tables built out for a hierarchy to drill down into without creating separate modules. If we could select the level to show in addition to having synchronization based on selection it would eliminate a…

ISNUMBER function
There is currently no way no easy way to identify whether data is numeric or not. The workaround for X is to check the following set of conditions: NOT (VALUE(X) <= 0 OR VALUE(X) >= 0) Currently this is certainly not a consistent approach and there is always a risk that the comparison operators ("<=" and ">=") will start…

More options for TEXTLIST
There is currently no way I can use TEXTLIST function with both unique values AND mapping. * Either you can use parenthesis function with UNIQUE property * Or aggregation function with mapping but with entries repeating. To sum up both use cases are incomplete. Please add option to turn on both features at the same time: *…

Ability to use Concatenate (&) in a Select Function
I would like the ability to add an Concatenate to Select Function. For example SELECT: VERSIONS."Budget "&NAME(Current Year). As we have multiple Budget Version, the current version in play and the future version. So in our variance reporting module it would select the correct version as budget. Similar with forecast ……

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

Prompt to open list when creating
I am adding a new list, it would be useful to either open the list immediately afterwards (or prompt for opening). This could work in the same way as creating a module. The logical next step to creating a list is to add members to the list. It would be more efficient to be able to add members to the list as part of the…

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…

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…

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.

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.
-
Custom Format for Lists
Currently all list items default to text. It would be helpful to add them as dates, numbers, 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.

Keep Dashboard Tables Anchored
When making inputs to large tables, the dashboard will scroll back to the top after making an entry. The ability to have the dashboard stay anchored while entering information would save time for users. We are having to use the maximize feature for each table to input data.

Automatic Sum in Drilldown View
Ability to select multiple cells in a drill down window and see the sum on the back end, as you can on a dashboard.
-
Boolean Format Options
When boolean is selected as a line item format, there should be an option to have single or multiple selections allowed. Currently, the default is to allow multiple selections. For instance, for single-selection, once one line item has been checked, all of the other line items have a greyed out checkbox that cannot be…

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…

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 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…

Add a tab for saved module views in Model Settings -> Modules
Description of enhancement: To add List of modules' views in the Model Settings menu. It would be great if it can include: View name Model name Actions’ names then view is used as a source Dashboards where used An example of the enhancement: It may be very similar with the Modules list. A story for why they want the…

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…

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.

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…

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…

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…

Add a "Close all Other Tabs" option to the right click menu
When building in Anaplan, it is common to find a LOT of tabs open. Currently right-clicking on a tab in Anaplan a user is presented with the "Undock, Close, Close All" options. It would be really helpful to have an option to "Close All Other Tabs", which would close all, except it would leave open the one I currently have…

Right-click to Add / Delete line items in a module
Excel's handling of adding / removing rows is very natural feeling. Sure you can go into the ribbon bar and find the button, but that's much slower and breaks one's workflow more easily than simply right-clicking on a row and selecting "Insert" or "Delete" In Anaplan, adding / removing a line item item are ONLY available…

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…
