Clear an entire module
Scenario: If I am importing data into a module and a line item no longer exists in the source file, the Clear Before Import will not clear that line item as it will only clear line items that are coming in from the file. This can lead to numbers being off. Current workaround: Create a duplicate module that is filled with…

It would be helpful to have an “aggregation operator” property that would apply to a hierarchy.
For example, consider the following hierarchy, applied to a module, with the following values: Net Income: $10 Gross Margin: $40 Sales: $100 Cost of Sales: $60 Operating Expense: $30 Clients would prefer to see Cost of Sales as a positive number. In aggregating, they would want to see Cost of Sales subtracted from Sales to…

Search Functionality for Import Data Source Selection
When setting up an import into a list or module, it would be useful to be able to search for a module/list/saved view when connecting to an Anaplan model on the "Select Source" section. I have a model with hundreds of modules and having to scroll through these modules every time I set up an import action can get tedious.…

Enable Display Name Functionality on Non-Numbered Lists
Hi Anaplanners, I love the Display Name functionality on numbered lists. I sure could use this across all lists. Sometimes building lists off transaction IDs makes sense but by the time the data gets to the end user flipping to the description would be nice. Thanks!

Enable creation of new Version for model in deployed status when using ALM
Provide possibility to create and remove new Version when using ALM in the models that are in Deployed mode. For the enterprise organizations with strict sagregation of duties, it is neccesarry to have possibility to do as described, either manually or using Anaplan Connect API to create/remove versions on scheduler and…

New workflow dashboards: auto-refresh when launching actions
In a standard dashboard data within are automatically refresh when a process/action is run. If you are loading data from a txt or from another module the user see that data are changing at the end of the action. With the new workflow this is not happening and, from an user stanpoint, this generate confusion and the need to…

Anaplan Integrations should work to edit model cells in addition to bulk upload.
Anaplan ETL connectors provide bulk upload capabilities. There should be capbilities for the customers to edit model cells in addition to bulk upload.

Provide the workspace and model data available for querying in Bigquery
We have our data in Anaplan workspaces and models but our power users like to query the data. Would it be possible to make our workspace data available to query in bigquery ?

To save records in the module, some kind of archiving within the model not the actual archiving.
So I am developing a model where I need to save the same module with different versions of it. Basically, I wish to make some changes and save it and someone else also should be able to make the changes and see it. I want to capture these modules with the changes made for the future reference.

Option of removing the space for Row label header from the export file if the header is not included
In the model currently we doing an export to APO. Our export file currently has a blank line which is generally there for the Row Label headers. APO is not able to pick up the data from the file as it it not able to distinguish between the header row and data row because of which now we have redesign the complete set 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…
-
Allow history export summary only
When the model history is shown on the screen it is as a summary. When it is exported as a file it contains all the details. For some uses this is too much data and it would be good to have the option to export as a summary, just like the data shown in the dialog.

Automatically generate Keys for Importing fact data into Data Hub module
Importing fact data into "flat modules" in a Data Hub is challenging when your data source is unable to provide a single unique Key to act as a List Item. That work ends up taking place between the extracted data and the import into Anaplan and oftentimes involves concatenating Key columns into a single column, sometimes…

Allowing imports into more than 1 fixed month
It would be nice if we could select “Fixed Months” when doing an import and have the option of importing one file into multiple months rather than just one month at a time.

Ability to mask or sanitize all of the Production Data within a model
I would like to be able to easily mask all Production Data within a model. Currently, this involves a lot of manual effort. For example, replacing all names with fake names, and all numbers with fake numbers. Being able to do this is useful for a couple of different purposes: * If I need to have Anaplan Support take a copy…

Date Stamp List Property for Imported Data
A similar concept around date stamps was suggested here: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Date-Stamp-for-manually-entered-reference-data/idi-p/38423 but I would love to see this for imports too. A problem I've come across is importing data from a CSV without a date column into an import list. There are…

Make upload templates as a flat file so we can have 1 upload template per model
It would be interesting to have the possibility to have upload templates as flat file in order to ease the management of upload templates. This would allow us to have to manage only 1 template, and a list of columns that are "uploadable" We would need to have as many columns as dimensions, 1 column for the line item and 1…

Allow for multiple list items in user selective access when importing from a module into users
We use imports to update our user list with selective access, but cannot do this when one user can have multiple access, e.g. access to multiple countries in a list, because the line item in the module has to be dimensionned by the list itself and in the list we can only select one item. Alternatively we may run the action…

Import Action Editor Visibility
It would be great if all features of an import action, including field mapping, were visible and could be edited in one place. Particularly challenging today if an import file is set to private, once it expires after 48 hours, it is impossible to view or edit the import mapping.

See error dumps for previously run imports
As a model builder or data integration user, I want to be able to see a history of all the recent imports into Anaplan as well as access the associated error dumps for each of those actions. Currently, when I run an import or import process via the UI and there are errors, the error dump shows on my screen and I can…

Allow the option to not create an import as an action
The ability to select whether you want a manual data import saved as an action on the actions tab is requested. The reason being that during development and for sprint review purposes, sometimes test data or files with lists are uploaded to allow clients to visualize the end product. Every time an import is run, an action…

Set the fields in a certain order that will not change for exports and have alias headers
For downstream systems, the headers must have specific names that are not related to how the Planners use Anaplan. Also, some of the downstream systems are very specific about the order of the fields in the export. When Anaplan has to adapt to business changes, the export to the downstream systems has to remain constant or…

Multiple JDBC queries in one configuration file
For a customer I use directly SQL scripts that are used in Anaplan connect (1.3.3.3). These SQL scripts connect directly to the ERP system. Now with the change of Anaplan connect 1.4, you must use a JDBC propertie file which can only holds one query. At this point of time I have 170 SQL scripts that looks to 6 different…

Export only current page selection
Description: As a model builder, I want to give users the ability to efficiently export their dashboard grids.

Example of the…

Enhancements to API
Would like to see additional enhancements to the API, things like retrieving line item blueprints, list/module editing, list properties, etc. This would enable customers to control their Anaplan environments with various automations.
