Actions/processes to be triggered by boolean line items in the model
This ideas comes from the need for many of my clients which use the classic engine to use concatenated/combination lists to overcome sparsity issues. Whenever, a new combination of dimensions used either in actuals/budget/forecast is used an action can be triggered to run which automatically creates the combination list so…

Option to duplicate Anaplan processes
Greetings Anaplanners, I'd like to share an idea about the availability of the option to duplicate Anaplan processes. Context: Recently, I was engaged in creating flat exports from a module, which functioned seamlessly when a series of 12 actions were executed, followed by an export action. When the need arose to replicate…

Supply Chain Related Functions
Just like we have functions for Financial (COUPDAYBS, COUPDAYSNC, etc) and Call Center Planning (AGENTS,ANSWERTIME, ARRIVALRATE) can we have something similar to support Supply Chain Planning? Like End of Stock, Beginning Inventory, etc based on input parameters?

Multi-Dimensional Sorting for Hierarchical Lists
We need a way to sort hierarchical lists by multiple dimensions. Currently, Anaplan's 'Sort Order Action' for hierarchical lists only allows sorting by parent or by child, which limits our flexibility. Problem Statement:Currently, when working with hierarchical lists, the sorting functionality is limited to a single…

Add Filter Functionality to Modules Tab
The modules tab should have filter options for 'Functional Area', 'Applies To' and some other columns that allow the model builder to quickly search for a particular module(s). If I want to find all modules that are dimensioned by 'x' dimension, how do I find it quickly? Exporting to Excel and filtering there is time…

Formula Break-Down Without Space Penalty
Currently, to adhere to best practices it is beneficial to break out parts of a complex calculation into separate line items for logic traceability and audit-ability. However, in many models we're constrained by space and can effectively reduce space (especially in large multi-dimensioned modules) by combining logic in…

Cell count copy limits in Anaplan - Cell count requested '178676' exceeds maximum '10000'
Hi Because of cell count copy request limitation below; it would be nice if this can be enhanced to a much bigger number; we can then copy/paste in other systems e.g. Excel.

Source Model view model labels
In the Source Models view, when you change the name of a model being sourced, the name change does not carry through to the Source Models view. This can cause confusion. Can we have the Source Models view reflect the updated Model names being sourced.

multiple developers are working on different enhancements to the same model
We have two approaches to manage scenarios where multiple developers are working on different enhancements to the same model, and we need to push their changes separately into the production model: 1. Rollback Method: After completing a build in the development model (in standard mode), the developer meticulously documents…

Request for addition of function to jump to module used in calculation
When jumping to the referenced module, I copy it and paste it into the search box. Since it is a time-consuming operation to perform many times during construction, we would like you to add a function that allows you to jump immediately to the referenced module.

Anaplan should provide a learning environment for Workflow functionality
My understanding is that there is a licensing fee (applied to all non-read-only users within a tenant) that has to be contracted and paid in order to open up the new Workflow functionality. I don't think this is fair, because how are we (as the Anaplan experts and model builders) to understand the technology to be able to…

Export Names definable for future exports
Allow model builders the ability to name the file that is going to be exported from a saved export so that when the action is run again. Thus the end user runs the export and what ever the file name is defined as, is the default name that the file is assigned.

Extend workspace size beyond 720 GB
We need Anaplan to develop into a truly scalable enterprise solution. Introduction of Hypermodel workspace were a major leap in 2020. Now we need Anaplan to move to next level/indefinite. The max workspace cap will force us to implement an architecture with less generic structures. This hard cap pose a risk of uncontrolled…

Model Search Idea: Search through Pages
As a model builder and a page builder, I would like to be able to search pages via model search as I can do with dashboards now. Additionally would be perfect if I could search modules within Pages also. This would help me a lot to find out where a certain module is published.

Search filter for Lists and Roll-ups
It'll be very helpful to have Search filter on Lists and Roll-ups section of pop-up box for creating new module. Sometimes, it becomes tough to find list here to add in module.

Make available Card Templates across multiple models
Currently we can save card templates in our development model, but we are not able to access this template when we move to our test or production models. We must manually add a new card and make all changes to match. It would be great if these templates could be stored at a higher level so that the card would be available…

Dynamic Totaling for Lists with Selective Access
We have users who only have access to certain list items in the L3 list. They want to be able to see the total for the list items that they are responsible for. However, with selective access, totals for the hierarchy are hidden. If we give them Read Access to the Top Level of the hierarchy, they will be able to see…

End Users being able to see all Users in a User dimensioned module
When you've got a module dimensioned by users only if you're a workspace admin can you see the whole list - not very helpful if you're pushing out user-level DCA to end users to manage themselves. Now I can have a separate "user list" that's can be interacted with but it should be the case that end users can see the whole…

Mass Change of Apps Associated Model
Right now if I duplicate an App to point it to a test environment I have to change each page from the manage models screen. It would be nice to be able to either copy and paste the model change to all the page lines or have a select all feature that lets me change all of them at once.
