Export multiple modules into unique file
As a Model Builder I want to create a Process to trigger multiple Export actions at once, each export linked to a different module. However, the Process generates as many files (csv, Excel, txt,...) as the number of Export Actions within the Process. It would be better if the Process could generate a single file (CSV,…

Run export from source model to target model
At the moment in order to transfer data between models manually it is required to open the target model and pull/import the data from there. Having the additional functionality of running an export from the source model to the target (pushing the data instead of pulling it) would enhance the user experience in some…

Ability to modify the SSO URL in powerpoint/excel add-in
It would be nice if within the Powerpoint/excel add-in, you could modify the SSO URL without having to uninstall and re-install the software. If a user is having issues logging in, it would be easy to check the SSO url, and modify it if they put in the wrong information. Sometrimes IT has to be involved with installing…

Excel Add-In: Possibility to display name or code for list members
I would like to have the possibility to extract different attributes for a list member in the worksheet via Excel Add-In (rather than just the name), in the same way the direct export from Anaplan allows: display name, code, parent, etc. Few examples where I find this functionality useful: reconciliation process after a…

Data Tags as a comment feature for developers
Hi team, As a Model Builder and BAU Support Team Specialist, I am interested in documenting enhancements in our models. Using only the Notes feature as a commenting tool, it is getting really hard to track them all after a couple of years of the model being rolled out. At some level of complexity of the model, it is…

Creating a version with import action - access settings
Hi, When manually adding versions, you have the option to select access setting. By default, it is Write. See photo below. However, if you try to create a new version via import action, you can't specify the access setting. The new version created, has by default No Access. I wanted to automate the version creation using…

Simultaneous processing (multi-threading) of Anaplan actions
As a user and/or model builder, I want to be able to run actions simultaneously where possible to speed up the data processing and list maintenance actions. This function should also allow other actions to be run only after certain actions have finished running successfully. As an example, if I want to load trial balance…

add processId, actionId, fileId as columns in Settings (for API development)
This will speed up API development and runtime both. The API requires ID's as parameter, however Anaplan UI shows only the Name. When using API for sending data to Anaplan or triggering a process we now use the name for searching the id. Currently this requires additional looping in our API framework. If we know from the…

Ability to import line item format into blue print view
The ability to import line items format while importing blueprints would be really helpful. Currently, I've set up an automated process to import newly created line items from one module into another module on a daily basis.

Condition-Based Trigger for Email Reporting
The current MAILTO function requires clicking the cell in order for an email to be generated. It would be very helpful if this click action occurs automatically only if a certain logical condition is met. For example, if the sum of all sales from last week reaches a certain threshold or is below a certain threshold, the…

Default Export File Type to CSV
This one is simple. Anaplan's recommended export file type is CSV, yet the export dialog defaults to Excel / XLS. Yesterday we had an integration mysteriously run for 7 hours, later realizing it was because the export file type wasn't changed to CSV. Please allow model admin to set the default export file type to CSV. This…

MSP requirement for tenant integration
MSP partners require the capability for a workspace in Tenant A to read & write directly to a different workspace in Tenant A or B. 1.Must go beyond the functional capability to do imports between WS within the same tenant. 2.A .csv export from a WS in tenant A and import into WS in tenant B is too cumbersome 3.Maybe Hyper…

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…

New UX needs to have a multi-lingual user interface to allow non-english language implementations
Hi Anaplan, The New UX does not currently support a multi-lingual interface. Many of our clients are asking for this to be implemented. It would be really beneficial for many Anaplan Users across the world (Europe, Asia, Africa, South America) for the new UX and UI to support a multi-lingual interface. Great idea suggested…

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…

Excel Add-in Authentication method settings (applicable to PPT as well?)
Hi, As an add-in user I would like to be able to change the authentication settings anytime after the first installation attempt. This is because while a number of users might be able to install an Add-In on their machine with non admin rights they would not be able to uninstall it. This means that if a user is providing…

Excel Add-in: Allow for the ability to connect spreadsheet interface to more than one connection
If a model is archived, then retrieved , its model ID changes. The model ID change disables the spreadsheet's data connection.

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…

Copy Paste Formatting into other Tools (Excel)
Description: Much like this example, Anaplan formats in odd and weird ways when moving into Excel. Numbers being copied pasted into excel should retain a numbered format instead of scientific notation when pasted into Excel.

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.
