Print as wysiwyg
What you see is what you get (wysiwyg) is a common feature in most reporting tools and a fair request. Currently when we try to export through classic or new UX (as PDF), what we get is far from what we see. This greatly reduces the application of some of our modules as we cannot create PDFs and forward it to higher ups…

Backdrop: I have a process containing an import action from data hub to spoke model that populates spoke model list members. Let's say there are 5 members in my spoke model list and there are currently no changes in my source data. Given there are no changes in data, a. The import process when run from 'Actions' tab shows…

Excel add-in, Date time settings
Excel Add-In error: Refresh failed due to unexpected error. Found out that when the Excel template is created with Regional settings [ ex. decimal symbol as Dot / . ] is different from your system settings [ ex. Decimal symbol Comma / , ] then the refresh fails and shows up unexpected error. This is solved as soon as the…

Search Function within Edit Process
It will be great if there is a search functionality for a specific action within the Edit Process (or Create Action -> Process), especially useful for a model with long list of actions. At the moment, I need to search the action from Actions pane, note where its position is i.e. top, middle, or bottom of the list, and use…

Data import analysis
Would be very beneficial if Anaplan provided more details on the data imported. Besides the normal error log, it would be helpful if e.g. max/min values, outliers, exceptions, trends, most/least frequent items, dimension items count etc. could be displayed upon import to help the user do a quick sanity check of the data…

SAP integration
Suggest to build native integration with SAP solutions. A lot of Anaplan customers use SAP solutions such as SAP ECC, S/4 HANA, SAP BW etc. and heavily depend on large amounts of data flowing back and forth into Anaplan. Integrating with these solutions often require an extra layer such as AWS or similar which then again…

Export excel number format align with Anaplan data format
We have lineitem set as number with 2 decimal places. We set export file action with excel format template for user to easily upload back to the system. The excel output does not set data format by column but by cell which making us lost decimal number if we did not change format to number. Cell that already has data…

Local settings for .csv imports - Booleans
Hello, I faced a problem when importing boolean values to anaplan as part of csv file. Our company uses localized version of MS Excel, which when saving a file containing boolean values to text/csv, keeps them not as TRUE or FALSE, but as local equivalents ИСТИНА and ЛОЖЬ. I can try to change my own excel settings, so I…

Default subset setting
Suggest to add ability for model builder to change the default setting for list subsets. I.e. add option to select whether a subset setting should be true or false for any new list items added. This will make it easier and more flexible to work with subsets, and help avoid having to create a dummy module and action to…

Filters when loading data from Flat File or external sources
It would be very useful to have filters to filter our some of the unwanted data in the source while loading the data into a list. Example Filter out certain Time periods, empty products, range of customers etc. Otherwise this is done in the model or the Hub after bringing all data. Other planning solutions have this even…

Search option while importing Saved Views from one model to another
While building imports from one model to another, it is tough to look for Saved Views as they are not sorted alphabetically. It would help if we can have an option to search the Saved View while importing.

Publish Subsidiary View to the Excel add-in
Our users are using the excel add-in to link to offline files for forecasting inputs. Currently, we cannot use a subsidiary view in the excel add-in, which is making it impossible to forecast a few items using subsidiary views through the add-in. Seems like this would be a useful enhancement. excel, add-in, subsidiary view

[ACTIONS/IMPORTS] When importing use the file name for automatic mapping
Description: As a model builder, I want to be able to use the file name that the user uploads, so that it can pick up automatically a dimension. This can be done when the source system exports files that have dynamic naming based on the selection of dimensions. Example of Enhancement: I’ll know this is successful when I am…

Feature while Exporting
Currently when we export the data out of Anaplan we either create line items in the export module or we rely upon Properties of the dimension. Idea I am proposing is to give modellers third option which is to pick the line items from diff modules in the export window (Preferably System module) which share the common…

Dump Files in Mulesoft Connector
Hi, The Anaplan Connector for Mulesoft only let you download the dump files in path, it push you to work with a local server, when in almost all the cases the customers use Cloud environment and the data goes through streaming to Anaplan. Would be nice if you can collect the dump file directly in the connector and sent it…

Custom scripting line item calculations
I would love a way to be able to use my custom python scripts and the vast amount of Python libraries on line items in a module, rather than use the Anaplan formulas out of the box. It would save time on export/import data to the Anaplan model. I'm assuming the formulas that are used now are some form of Java or C++? Maybe…

Update Anaplan connector for Informatica Error Message
When using the Anaplan connector for Informatica Cloud and an export fails when writing the output to a table that it can't accommodate a generic error message of [ERROR] Exception in thread “Thread-9” is displayed. It would be beneficial if a more meaningful message is displayed. Current Error Message: Proposed Error…

Option to export Graphs with Title and/or Labels
When exporting a graph from the New UX, the title of the card is dropped as are the labels/selectors. This is the case whether it is exported via "print chart", or PNG/SVG/JPEG. Ideally, there would be an option to include/exclude this information on the export, but at minimum to automatically include this information on…

Import Action Categories and Separators
The import action management section often becomes messy because ALL import actions are saved. Would love the ability to create sections and separators, to better organize the import actions I intend to repeat. The following example was created from dummy imports, but it would be great if this feature were built in. I…

New Source Files should be accessible by all Admins as default
When we are creating new data feeds to Anaplan via API, it will set the new file on private as default, which you can't change afterwards anymore. In our case the file would be created by our 'AnaplanCoE' user we are using for the API. It would be great if you can change the file that it will be the default for everyone or…

Excel Add-in: restrict end-user ability to create a new connection
* Description: As an author of the new Idea, I want to suggest the new level of security in Add-on(s). Where we can restrict the Non - WSA User not to create a new work book using the models that they may have access to. * Example of Enhancement: If the user is not a WSA for the particular model he should not have access…

When saving a view ignore the case sensitivity
We have a 10-minute rollback sometimes and we are very careful to ensure formulae and entries are correct. The one annoying thing is case sensitivity on views. I had to wait 12 minutes because I saved a view as Customer Data and then saved as Customer data. It does not ask if you wish to replace and it does not allow the…

Contents of import actions
For import actions it would be good to have a column in Imports tab. suggesting which of the source items(list or lineitems) are mapped to target. Not the natural mapping by anaplan but any thing which is manually mapped and saved rather than opening each action and figuring out.

Have the Docusign Add-In Update the Status of Documents Automatically or have an 'Update All' button
* Description: Currently, in the Docusign add-in, you have to manually click into each document and click on update to get the current status. This is painful if you have a lot of documents. * Example of Enhancement: The best solution would be to either have this automatically update regularly, or have an 'update all…

Bulk Copy over a selection of two or more dimensions
Dear all, Would be great to bulk copy data on a certain combination of dimensions: For example to copy the data of one Store to a specific other store but just for a selection of months and a specific version. And make it possible to create an action out of it; it would allow end-users to pre-populate a new Product, Store,…

Import into Parent Level using BreakBack
I would be really good if we can import data into the Parent Level when Breakback is enabled. Currently, it is not possible in the system . Hope to see this functionality soon in Anaplan!! 🙂 🙂

"Omit Summary Items" on Exports should be an option for Imports
Currently, there is an option to "Omit Summary Items" when you are exporting data designed to exclude parent hierarchies. However, there is no such option for imports and this requires users to create saved views that manually exclude parent levels and can cause a lot of manual work for model builders. Without removing…

Exclude Line Item Subset from data export
Hi Team While exporting data from a module, if there is a 'Line Item Subset' in the dimensions, we are unable to exclude it from Export. Can you please make the option available? I have provided some screenshot. Thanks & Regards Kudi
