Action Button to Trigger Outbound Requests (GET, POST etc.)
It would be great to have a button on new ux available that could be configured to send an outbound request to an external endpoint (GET, POST etc.), for now even an empty request could be helpful, but bonus points for allowing a configurable payload within Anaplan.

Show 'referenced by' also for saved views
We use frequently saved views to import data from a source module into a list or other modules. A great challenge is to understand where these saved views are used, it is particularly challenging when you import data across models. The only current way is to go through the import sources of each model or use the business…

Ignoring some columns when mapping timescale through column headers
When we get a source file with time in the columns it is very common to have columns that are not relevant for the mapping. As time usually requires using an "automatic" mapping it is quite inconvenient that columns that are not relevant are processed as a FAILURA in Anaplan. It would be fantastic to have the option to…

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!

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…

Ability to integrate with CI tools

Trigger API from Anaplan (native solution)
I would like to be able to trigger the API from Anaplan (e.g. button on a dashboard). This will enable sending data to another Anaplan model or to a different system event based by an end-user, rather then scheduling it outside Anaplan. Eventually it will enable much better integrations with 3th party solutions (advanced…

Real world instance: A request to either re-order, add in new columns, or update an existing export with new information. Current Solution: Clear all of the properties prior to the new column's location and re-enter all of the properties that were required to be deleted. This takes time, and is susceptible to mistakes. New…

When we export modules containing text-formatted line items and we choose csv or txt format, the column separator is automatically forced on 'comma'. If the text within the line item contains any comma in its body, it will shift the following columns and damage the whole file. It would be great to be able to choose the…
