Reorder button in Manage Views
As a model builder I would like to have the "Reorder" button in the "Manage Views" section of a module so that I can re-arrange my views quickly and easily. On big models with many views this could be a bit tricky. However, I agree that if builders keep on top of it as views are created and use naming conventions, this…

Add option to search for data anywhere within the table of a module, not just the rows dimension
Pretty self-explanatory but I want the ability to search for data or text or part of a formula anywhere within a module, not just the rows column. Identical to what Excel does with ctrl+f.

Numbered lists to add display name by default
I think it would save a lot of time during initial model setup if the following actions happened when a model builder checks Numbered List within the general lists panel. * New property within checked list created called Display Name. * Display Name property format set to text. * (Potential) Set Display Name property…

Improve Keyboard Navigation
Similar to a post by AnaplanIdeas found here, it would be great if Anaplan had improved keyboard navigation. Specifically, if the following areas were navigable by keyboard: * Model settings pane * Lists panel * Modules panel Importantly, if users should be able enter elements using the enter key, rather than having to…

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…

Ignore blank dates for MIN calculations
I'd like Anaplan to ignore blank dates when performing MIN calculations: MIN, x[MIN:y], and MIN as a summary function. For numbers, I can see why 0 is evaluated since sometimes those are true zeroes, but for dates this makes much less sense. With dates, I would want the MIN calculations to return blank only if all of the…

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.…

Move "Refresh" button from Edit Menu, onto Main Blueprint Toolbar
This is a quick one, but I was wondering if we could move the Refresh button out of the Edit Menu and into the main module blueprint toolbar? When I explain it to new folks, they always find it un-intuitive to have to open the Edit Menu, before they can Refresh.

Mouseover Hover Text for Model Builders
I think it would be helpful to model builders if there was a hover over option to display the text of a particular element. There are instances where the description is cut off for certain display elements and there is no option to resize columns for that element (I see this most frequently in the Module Blueprint and Data…

Add module's name to the Line Items grid in the Modules section
It'd be great to have a module's name in the Line Item's grid. Especially when I extract it to Excel

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…

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…

Capability to define a Default Value
-------- Edit : There was a problem with the body, below the good explanation 🙂 -------- As a Workspace Admin, I would like to be able to define a default value for some Line Items (list, number or boolean). Ex: When a user adds a new row, I would like that some Line Item to be automatically filled with a default value.…

Open modules using 'Referenced By' column
It would be really helpful if the 'Referenced By' column opened all modules associated to the line item (similar to clicking on a functional area name to open all associated modules). This could be achieved by SHIFT+LEFT CLICK to differentiate from selecting the cell rather than following the hyperlink. This would be…

Line Item Format move Style format dialogue
When you click on the line item format I would like to be able to choose my style at this stage rather than having to scroll to the right to then change the style that is applicable to the line item.

Move multiple actions in a process at one time
When you add actions to a process they are added to the bottom on the list of the already existing actions. Whilst you can move a single action I would like to be able to select multiple actions and move them in a single action.

Ability to select multiple models to change the mode
Hi Anaplan, It would be great if we have a feature to select multiple models in the Manage Models page to change the mode at one go. For instance, if I want to archive 20 test models created by my team mates, then it would be easy if I have an option to click a Boolean to select the models and change the mode from Standard…

Allow un-balanced hierarchies on composite hierarchies for child hierarchies
As a model builder, I would like to be able to add "parent" elements into the child hierarchies (Level 2, 3, etc.). As for now, in a child hierarchy is allowed only to add leaves elements (elements without children) because as "parent" are allowed to be set only elements from the parent hierarchy. As for now, the unbalance…

update source model default
In the model settings -> Source Models you are able to edit a mapping and change the source to e.g. the production model rather then the development model. For some of our models we have recreated multiple development models (copy of production) this resulted that as source model there are a lot of non existing models…

Ability to drag and drop an Import action in a Process
Hi Team, It would be really good if we have a Drag and Drop feature of an Import action (in addition to Up and Down arrows) in Edit --> Process. For instance, if a Process has more than 40+ Import actions, then it would be difficult to move a newly added import action/ an existing action to the 22nd place. Thanks Sathya
