New UX: Ability to view and export "codes" as labels in grid view
When producing a grid table, it would be useful to have the option to also bring through the code in a separate column/row next to the display name and have the ability to show or hide these depending on the user requirements. Likewise, having the option to export with the code. A small example is below. I note the export…

Split admin and users input in the logging
In the history logging, split the changes made by regular users and by admin users (automated or workspace admin) so you can easily check what has been entered by users. As an alternative this can even already be achieved by splitting the manual input and the process driven changes. Currently we cannot see what changes…

Pivot feature for Google add-ons
The information toolbar suggests that we pivot in Anaplan using filters and pivot feature. This is an inconvenience from the user experience perspective. If that were to be the case then we are better off creating views for everyone. Moreover, this feature that's been mentioned as information does not work as intended.…

Ability to change Pivot in Google Sheets Add-on
The Google Sheets add-on doesn't let us change the dimensions in the Pivot when setting up the connection, unlike the Excel add-in. We need to create custom views in the model to be able to pull the data in the format we want. This is a big deterrent towards adoption of the Google Sheets add-in and restricts the…

Cloudworks to include all Process status just at running in Model manually
In Cloudworks, only the detailed status of failed Process/import/export is shown, the successful ones are not shown. Would be great if the details status (Updated, Ignored, Unsuccessful) will be recorded for all imports/exports run, so that users will be able to confirm if the Process has been run correctly.

Anaplan Excel Add-in Prerequisites
I wanted to share an uncommunicated prerequisite for the Anaplan Excel Add-in 4.x series.

Conversion to V4 - copy of older version is not made on Onedrive
To upgrade to V4, workbooks that are created in lower versions have to be converted. On conversion, a copy of the older version is supposed to be made. This works on a local drive but it does not work on OneDrive. As most of our files are on OneDrive, this will not work in our business operating environment. We will not…

Ability to Connect Power Point Add in with Dashboards
It would make every end users' life easier if we have an ability to connect Power Point Add-in directly with the dashboards instead of modules. Now Reporting page coming into action, it will make a lot of sense if we could just create the connection with any page/dashboard and boom power point is ready.

CloudWorks Scheduling by Day of Month
It would be great if we could schedule Imports & Processes during Month End dynamically. e.g. Each Month I need to edit my schedule to update the Start Date & End Date for the relevant month end period. Would be great to have 1st day of month as a selection from Start Date and 7th day of month for End Date as an example so…

Import Enhancement: Tab- Line Items: Being able to select Multiple, All, or blank "Mapped to"
Currently when Mapping a file, view, or similar, if you have extra line items/columns, Anaplan doesn't always identify that a new line item is selected, and takes multiple attempts to have your selection identified. (Bug, and I use Chrome with 90% zoom) Being able to Map everything you are going to map, then select all…

Importing Large Files on Pages - Two Step process should be one step
When importing a large file during a Process on Pages, I'm required to first attach the file, and then wait for the attached file to finish uploading to Anaplan, and then I have to come back to the action to run it. However, in the original UX, this is all one process. Having this as a two-step process is preventing us…

Ability to specify an escape character for an import
Some import sources can contain escape characters for special characters depending on how they were generated (i.e. generated by a specific software).

Force the API cell read to include Row Header Labels.
When using the data read API, any row dimensions do not have headers. This is an option in the Export tab when using the UI.

Export module with comma as decimal separator
Requesting an enhancement to be able to export to file with comma's as the decimal delimiter. At the minute the export is not using the Number format options of the line items.

Allow for more control around duplicating, adjusting, and managing Exports
Imagine you need to update an export with a new column, but you want to retain the previous export for another group. In order to create this new use case, you now have to create an entire new export OR you have to inform the other team that you are adding in additional columns (even if you are allowed). Once you do fix…
