Automate actions that run the Anaplan Optimizer with Anaplan Connect, Cloudwork and the Anaplan API.
Until today, actions that run the Anaplan Optimizer are not supported by Anaplan Connect, CloudWorks and the Anaplan API. Because of that, it is not possible to put any processes that include the optimizer on schedule. This is blocking a number of use cases that could add value to our client.

CW flow's step startup settings
This would be a very convenient option: start a step and not wait for it to finish. For example, I need to wake up the model that will be needed in step 7. It takes 30 minutes to wake up, so I have to start waking up in parallel with step 4.

CloudWorks - Ability to add up to 50 steps to the Integration flow
As a tenant administrator and model builder, I scheduled 39 CW processes during the nightly integration. It's pretty hard to schedule them separately one after another, so an integration flow would be a lifesaver, but now you can only add 10 steps to one integration flow, so the new mechanism doesn't solve the problem…

CW settings report
It would be very convenient to export all CW processes to a table to quickly check settings between processes, without waiting to load, because now you have to click on each process and wait 2-3 seconds to load the fields in the first tab, then wait again for the second tab, then click on the next process and wait again.

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…

Systematic Updating of View Name/ID used in Import
This may be obvious to others, but I have found that when I rename a view in a source model, it breaks the Import in the destination. Unlike lists/modules do views not have corresponding IDs to represent them? I think most if not all elements in Anaplan should be linked by a unique identifier that should not be broken when…
