Improve the "Search the Anaplan Idea Exchange" on the Idea Exchange page
A couple of ideas to improve the search functionality; * Automatically enable the "idea" filter when using the search function on the Idea Exchange page* Currently, if I search the page for a phrase/idea to see if it has been raised, I am taken to a page that returns relevant results from across the entire community. It…

Idea exchange: idea of the week
Here is an idea to help the idea exchange. Currently some users go and vote for ideas every now and then, but there are so many ideas that the top ones are the most looked at and lots of users do not take the time to read through the ideas and vote. What about a weekly (?) email with the idea of the week so people can read…

Conditional Formatting for the text/number
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a way or workaround to apply conditional formatting on the text or number itself rather applying it to the cell. Example: Red color text/number for negative figure would looks more clean when it comes to detailed reporting. Any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Community should have forums centralized
As a user of Community in many ways, I would much prefer to have a better way to access all of the forums in a single location. It's hard to keep up when they are all over the place within the Topics section. Lets improve!

anniversary badges on Community
Hi, we had a modeler's forum in London with passionate Anaplan model builders. One of the ideas that came up is to have anniversary badges on Community to celebrate 1-year of having joined the community and so on. Model builders LOVE badges and they will certainly post these on Linkedin so it sounds like a fantastic idea!

Gantt Chart - Change processing display
Description: We utilize the Time dimension on our Gantt Chart, making adjustments like moving bars or resizing them. However, when we release the mouse click, there’s a brief period (typically 5-10 seconds for our complex model) during which it appears that the change is undone—the bar position reverts to its original…

Ensure community members are fully on top of new enhancements (improving comms and alerts)
As a community member I like/need to be on top of any new enhancements that are made available. Most recently it seems the strategy, alerting, comms has changed and it's more complicated to be on top of new enhancements, plan, test and deploy them as quickly as we would love to. Could we improve the comms by creating a…

A 'Best Practice' label / Category for all best practice related posts to make them easier to find.
Hi Anaplan, It would be great if the anaplan community platform could create a label called 'Best Practices' and then when you search on community it will be easier to find best practices related articles. It would be also if there was an equivalent for 'Feedback' so users could search to see if what they are experiencing…

Solution Architect Review Tracking
It would be nice to have some sort of status tracker for Solution Architect review. I submitted the application and now just waiting to hear back. would be nice if there was a dashboard to see if it is: application accepted, in review, etc., and maybe who the reviewer is that has been assigned.

Column Header Labels
One common ask that I normally get is having 2 levels in the column headers. While this can be done by adding another dimension, manually hiding excess columns, and publishing them in a page, this ends up taking up unnecessary space if the intention is to just have the 1st level of the column header act as a label. Would…

Show history in timezone of profile settings
All users set timezone in profile, but cell history is displayed in UTC. It's good if UTC is automatically changed to each user's timezone.

Block the extraction to excel of a grid that will fail due to too much data.
Sometimes users in the UX, when trying to export data from a grid to Excel, will accidentally attempt an extract that has too much data to Export to Excel. We request an improvement to the platform to stop an extraction that will fail based on the user having too large a selection. In one example, a user triggered an…

Display which UX Pages Actions have been published to (per existing classic dashboard functionality)
Hi Anaplan - I was hoping that, similar to what is already done for classic dashboards, there could be a column in the Actions tab which indicates which UX Pages each Action and Process has been published to. This would be massively beneficial (as inferred by its existence for classic dashboards), and seems to have been…

Master Anaplanner 'Points Status' Model
As Master Anaplanner certification requirements are now out and we are required to reach 400 points for participation, it would be useful to have a self service model where we are able to check: - What tasks we have completed - The points allocation to each task - What our current calendar year points total is

very beneficial if New Ideas, Upcoming Features and Release Calendar were less disjointed
Idea: I feel it would be very beneficial if New Ideas, Upcoming Features and Release Calendar were less disjointed so that community members could better monitor the entire journey of an idea.

Excel Add-in
The Excel Add-in for Anaplan is a key feature of the system, although all organisations would like to steer away from using this sometimes this is the easiest solution to a problem. I have used similar systems to Anaplan, Hyperion, Board, Cognos and TM1 and find this area very inflexible and lacking compared to its…

Current Date and Time Stamp in Anaplan
Hi everyone, is it possible in Anaplan to retrieve the current Date-Time information, with Timezones? So that we can create custom process logs that also shows TIME Stamps, without having to go through an API integration? This would be a very useful feature that will: Avoid us to schedule daily processes via Anaplan…

oAuth rediredt url port for desktop apps
Hello, Anaplan does not allow to set port for redirect URL, which makes oAuth unusable on desktop apps. (http://localhost:554422/ is "invalid" url for anaplan) The idea is to enable setting port in UI, now it throws an error or even better would be to be dynamic: Anaplan should accept port in redirect uri in OAuth…

update line item format and summary method right off the bat at line creation
currently line item must be created first and then individually be updated for format and summary method - better way would be to give model builders choice to change these attributes at time of line item creation

Password expiration management for technical account to access API
Hi Anaplan team, We are in bout to automatise the data integration from / to our IS to from / to Anaplan using your APIs. To do that, we will use our ETL (Talend) However, we found that the password expiration management is more for humain rather than machine. In fact, there is up to 90 days of password duration where a…

Zoom in on Screenshots in Community Threads
Screenshots are essential to the community threads. They describe a problem or solution without having to spell it out word by word. On the old platform you were able to click on an image in a thread and zoom into it to read formulas, etc. On this new community ux, the images are embedded and not able to be zoomed in on.…

Anaplan Chat Support
There should be an option to upload error screenshot while support chat. It is difficult to explain the agent what is the issue(for technical issues). Attaching a screenshot will give a better understanding to the Support team

Badges on the Community Home Page
Wouldn't it be nice if the Home page displays the number of badges community member has earned. Numbers can be shown in Kudos section or Solutions section or it can have section of its own. Also Since Community Pioneer badge can't be earned by community members who have joined the community, post 2017. I feel it should be…

Enable community to trade Anafans points
My idea is to enable all community members to share their Anafan points with other community members, as - essentially - a way of saying 'Thank you!'. The gesture would be meaningful in the sense that: 1) points are earned, so sharing them would be a joyous way to give back, solely between community members; 2) it would…

Make Dev and Prod models look different enough to distinguish at a glance
To make navigation and testing easier and to prevent accidental work in the wrong environment. Right now, there's generally just a drop down to switch between dev and prod. If Anaplan can make a major distinguishing marker between these environments, it would help the user to know where they are at all times either in the…

Dashboard to show occupied space by building blocks
Anaplan must have an option to show actual occupied space in MBs by objects e.g. line-items (rolled up by modules), list items, versions etc. This is area which needs extra calcs OR sometimes builders (including SA) struggle to find the reason of actual model size.. A leap in this direction will help the builder community…

Context Selector: Selecting Multiple Items at once
It would be very helpful, if you could select different items from a context selector at once and Anaplan should show an aggregate value of the selected items (e.g. Years: being able to selct multiple years at once in a grid would enable for instance in reporting to show 2023 and 2024 and the difference between the years.…
