NMX Idea: Highlight Referenced by line items within the same module
As a model builder, I would like to distinguish quickly which line items are referring to the active one. This will help in situations where there are too many references and it is hard to keep track of them when auditing. It will bring more transparency to data flow analysis. Also, it can highlight potential circular…

Search possibility when adding selective accesses for users
It is impossibly hard to navigate and find and select a selective access item for a user in user management when the hierarchy is complex and the selective access list has too many items. Is it possible to implement a search functionality for a selective access lookup screen?

Search Option for Filter Line Item to Find
Hello Community, I would like to give one suggestion/idea on to provide search option while applying filter on module. This thought came when I'm scrolling to find my filter line item out of n no.of line items in the module. I hope this makes easy modeling/avoid scrolling a lot while applying filter.

Make the "model open analysis" available
It is very common to face performance issues with Anaplan models. Examples are not lacking, you just have to have a look to Anaplan Community to realize it. Several “best practices” exist: https://community.anaplan.com/discussion/33530/oeg-best-practice-plans-this-is-how-we-model Moreover, a tool exists, the “Model Open…

Use ChatGPT's API to produce commentary and send it back into Anaplan
I've love to see some more native API's to connect Anaplan into ChatGPT API to be able to generate commentary. This would be an application similar to CloudWorks or PlanIQ that allows you to configure certain fields to be selected and then a certain style or questions can be asked to ChatGPT to produce the commentary based…

Line items
Hi Anaplan Team, Model builders could work more quickly and efficiently if we could display the list of filters and import actions. When we attempt to delete a line item, Anaplan shows the referenced line items, but it does not indicate which line items that specific line item is using in filters and import actions.

Default number format for line item
As model builder I have to change format settings for each number-formatted line item individually when it's created. Would be nice if somewhere in the system I could setup default number format to be applied automatically when new line item is created. In example below you can see that once created a line item has the…

Ability to view Totals for selective access enabled list items
Users would have the provision to view the totals of the list items they have access to in a particular hierarchy even though the selective access is enabled

Users at tenant level
Hi Would be nice to be able to export users data at tenant level, just like you can do at model level: Also would be nice for system to synch with Admin Access Control>Assignments and Users e.g. if one disables a user in Admin section, the user does not appear in Assignments list. Below user is disabled but still appears…

Ability to Comment Code
The ability to put comment blocks and indents within your formulas, so as to allow model builders to better document and format their code within the models for readability and understanding purposes. This will help align Anaplan's language back to the basic features all other development languages used in an enterprise…

Planning Gross Margin % and other Ratio metrics at levels above the bottom level
Pretty much everyone would agree that Gross Margin % (GM%) is a REALLY important metric when planning your business. It’s a key performance indicator for healthy past performance, and a key driver for future investment decisions and performance management. Employees are frequently bonused on revenue and margin goals – so…

Ability to test the model as a non WSA
Hi, It would be great if we could have a button to toggle which will let us replicate the non-WSA access. This will help in cases when there is a single model builder and he needs to test a functionality created for Non - WSA. This should not remove the workspace admin rights but more of like a 'Test as Non WSA' type of…

NUX - Pushing Changes from TEST App pages to PROD App Pages
BACKGROUND: We utilize ALM and have everything built out in Apps for End Users. We have Duplicate Apps for TEST and PROD. PROBLEM: This becomes a pain and time consuming maintaining the changes you make in both TEST and PROD. Currently we have to make a duplicate of each page edited, move it to the new app, then repoint…

Syncing Revision Tags
When pushing changes from DEV to PROD there is a box you need to uncheck to make sure PROD does not go offline. If a golden rule of the ALM is to not take off a model from PROD that box should default to being unchecked.

Increase Note Character Count (in Blueprint Mode)
250 characters or how ever many is too small for saving off larger formulas when modeling or if saving detailed descriptions/insctructions. Please increase to a few thousand. Thanks.

Model Search Idea: Recently opened objects
As a model builder, I would like to be able to have a quick list of recently visited objects (such as lists, modules, dashboards, pages - everything that opens as a separate tab in NMX) - at least 10 objects. This will save a lot of time while working on a particular functionality in big models for a long time. Every time…

Ability to select multiple grids and drag and drop as needed
While building UX page, it would be better if the developer can select multiple cards/grids in the page and move them together rather than doing it one by one which would save lot of time

Provide Retrospective Access to Optimizer Process Failed Message
When the Optimizer has failed (e.g. due to a timeout) I would like to be able to access the Process Failed message and details for the most recent Optimizer run from the Actions tab in the model. This feature could be provided e.g. via a hyperlink in the Start Date and Time (UTC) column. The message contains useful…

Improve history logging when changing current period
When a change is made to the current period of a model, the history record which gets generated only contains a description of "Change Time Scale". It would be useful if the Previous Value and New Value fields could be populated as well to understand the change in current period
-
Iterate Process X Times
Functionality should be added that allows users to iterate a process X times. This could be done with nested processes (which have gained support and would have other use cases), or some other configuration to determine if a process should be run several times. Use Case - pro forma financial statement development. To…

Anaplan History Extraction based on Specific Criteria
Hi Anaplan Team, We now only have one option for extracting history: selecting a date range. It will benefit all model builders and Anaplan workspace admin users who truly take part in model development if we can offer more options, filters, or criteria. History Extraction Options along with Data Range: based on a specific…

Model Map, stop automatic build of map
When selecting Model Map, Anaplan automatically builds the map. For a large model this can take a while to build and is rarely what you want. Instead you should be allowed to make your module selection, perhaps with checkbox for immediate dependents 'to' and 'from' and then have a 'Build Map' button.

Limit of 60 chars must be removed in the list item / lineitem name
Hi, The current limit of 60 chracters restricts the users to make sophisticated codes in complex usecases. It would be great if this limit cna be extended. Thanks.

TEXTLIST summary for line items with format set to Text
As Model Builder, I want to have additional choice - TEXTLIST - when selecting summary for line items formatted as Text. When TEXTLIST is selected, summary should join/concatenate lower level data. Preferably, joining should be done using separator defined by user (as different appilcations may need comma, colon, dot,…

Optimizer Error Handling
Hi As a Model Builder I like to see the exact constrain failure for my variable definition while constructing an Optimizer action. Currently Anaplan gives are generic message for Optimizer failure, in case we use multiple constrains for a solution and any one constrain doesn't meet the criteria process fails, if Anaplan…

Dates in Timesum
Timesum formula currently works with time periods. When the granularity of the data is Days, the formula cannot return anything (although it does not generate an error). The idea here is to enable Timesum to also work with Dates so that we can apply this formula to more granular use cases.
-
Keep Source Number Format for Line Item Subsets
Would love for Anaplan to have the ability to keep the source format when doing a collect function. For example, when looking at a P&L report, Gross Profit is a $ but Gross Profit Margin is a %. When bringing values in as a COLLECT, would like those number formats to remain intact.

Module view: Column Wrap
I would like to have an option in Module view to set width of columns so that the name of line item and data is visible. Similar to excel functionality where you can click on "Wrap Text" and it sets the width automatically rather than change it manually.

Add ability to import Format, Summary, Applies To as part of module blue print import
Currently, you can only import line item name, line item code and parent in module blue print mode as per screenshot below: The request is to expand it to include the ability to import Format, Applies To and Summary. And if not too complex, the Formula as well. I'm finding during various project engagements that there are…

Disable formulas in Version
I would like to see the possibility to disable formulas for an entire Version. This would enable to save a bulk copy of latest forecast without regards to change in logic. Currently this is managed by saving a copy of the entire model but that makes it hard to compare.
