Translation of time list for views and exports
Recently I've been working on an implementation of Anaplan to a non-english speaking customer (portuguese in my case). As part of that journey I was very pleased with the fact that in the data imports Anaplan can translate time from different excel languages into the standard time list - in other words months in Excel…

Default Export Excel Format
Hi, I am keen to have the default export to excel option changed to the xlsx version rather than the 1997-2003 xls format. While I know you can change this when exporting it would make sense to have the newer version as the default to allow for quicker exporting. Surely 99% of users would prefer it in this format ? I…

Cloudworks export date format timestamp
I would like to have the possibility to define the date format for exports to cloud storages. When you currently export files through Cloudworks you have the choice to tick/untick the overwrite file option. If overwrite is unticked Anaplan adds a timestamp in a worse machine reading format (e.g. <action…

Selective slide exporting from Management Reports
It would be great to be able to select specific slides to export when export management reports to PDF. Currently the system automatically exports all slides and you can't deselect any if you don't want to include them in the report pack.

Custom Module Views in Powerpoint Add-In
The Powerpoint add-in does not allow users to create custom module views. This is essential for user adoption of the add-in, especially when a referenced model utilizes ALM (Dev/Prod). In its current state, the Powerpoint add-in relies on saved views from a model. This is fine when the underlying model is in Standard mode,…

Process of Processes

CloudWorks additional integrations for AWS
Currently CloudWorks can integrate to S3 buckets. Can we expand this to include FSx (https://aws.amazon.com/fsx/windows/) and EFS (https://aws.amazon.com/efs/)? this would provide much easier integrations into corporate file system. As more companies move to Cloud based IT infrastructure this would great increase ease of…

Increase limit of row field when pivoting
It would be really helpful for myself and colleagues if more than just three items could be dragged into the row field whilst pivoting a module. This would also be really helpful for zero suppression on Anaplan exports as well as saving the need to manipulate Anaplan exports in Power Query (or similar data transformation…

"While/Wend" or "Do Loop" Functionality in Anaplan
Within VBA, it is possible to create "Loop & Exit"/"While/Wend" or "Do Loop" functions. This allows formulae to continue running until an answer is produced. Within Anaplan, there are workarounds, but none are truly as flexible, and all have their limitations. Creating this functionality would close the gap on some of the…

Ability to search Excel Add-In page selectors
The Excel add-in currently does not allow users to search for list members within a page selector. This almost makes the add-in unusable for organizations with large lists. The solution would be to add a simple search option similar to the Anaplan dashboard/page interface, where users can click a drop-down page selector…

Dynamic names for exports
It would be nice if we could define dynamic parts in the export filenames. For example a timestamp and or information about the selection perimeter for example : define the name like VALIDATED_INVOICES_%ORG ITEM%_%YYYMMDDHHMMSS%.csv that produces a file named VALIDATED_INVOICES_FRANCE_20211005165155.csv when generated

Adding actions in the process
Similar to adding modules/lists, there should be a way to add action into the process by selecting the action that are already present in the process and be able to add before/after the selected action. As the action will be added at the bottom on the process by default it is time taking process for moving action to the…

Export data to Excel, later version
Hi all, I am wondering why, when exporting data from Anaplan into Excel, the file type is a Microsoft Excel 97-2003 worksheet? Why are we using such an old format? Is there an option available to export to a more recent Excel version? Excel 365? We currently loose functionality in this old type of Excel sheets. thank you!

Improving the quality of management reports when exported to Excel
The quality of the font on management accounts deteriorates when exported to Excel. It's OK when zoomed in, however just looking at on an A4 page it gets fuzzy. It may be that the resolution is too high?

NUX Customize Load File message
Hi All, in NUX when Users need to load the file, they can see following message: It always says 'select the CSV file'. This is really confusing, because in this case Users are obliged to load Unicode Text file. Although, they always see CSV here. We are not able to edit or customize this message. Using classic dashboard,…

Setting to ignore elements when imported into a time dimension.
Hello everyone! I constantly face the problem that I described in this topic. The problem is that if, when loading data, you have time in the columns, and the rows have several non-embedded columns (reference for the user, outgoing measurement (and the mapping is done according to an additional LI: code), then at the start…

Maintain Native Application Formatting Following Refresh (Excel/PowerPoint Add-Ins)

Google Sheets Add-on: Ability to remap connections
As an end user having the ability to repoint/remap connections can be very beneficial. If the underlying source model is to be changed or is accidently deleted, users do not currently have the ability to repoint existing workbooks. This leaves them unusable and requires rebuilding the workbook from scratch. Currently this…

Ignoring some columns when mapping timescale through column headers
When we get a source file with time in the columns it is very common to have columns that are not relevant for the mapping. As time usually requires using an "automatic" mapping it is quite inconvenient that columns that are not relevant are processed as a FAILURA in Anaplan. It would be fantastic to have the option to…

New UX: Model Status/Refresh Messaging on New UX Page
Idea is to have a message or status on the New UX page in order to notify user that something is happening in the model that is causing the model to queue or be blocked (examples include: save state, actions, etc.). The lack of messaging causes massive frustration for users who think the New UX page is "slow". The classic…
