I am creating a balance sheeting planning in Anaplan with a list below. For "Net Assets" line, how do I make it "Assets" - "Liabilities" instead of sum of assets and liabilities
Has anyone tried using Ratio Summary against two dimensions in Classic? I have managed to get it working on Polaris before but for some reason doesn't want to do it in Classic
This question may have been asked and answered before, but I’d appreciate your thoughts on the following scenario. If a Flat List is used as the rows in a module, is it possible to apply formulas to specific rows within that list? In the example below, Revenue and COGS are pulled from a DAT module by using a SYS module…
As an Anaplan model grows, modules can gradually accumulate more line items, formulas, and business logic. At some point, splitting a module into smaller ones might make it easier to maintain, but it can also introduce additional dependencies. I'm curious how other modelers decide when it's time to split a module rather…
Hi everyone, I have a custom list that represents versions. Users need to be able to see all versions in UX pages and reports, but one specific version (Version 1) should be read-only. The problem is that when users run an import action, the action opens a dialog where they can select the version from a dropdown. Even…
Hi, I have the following issue with configuring a Workflow. I want to create a Notification Step in the Workflow where I assign users using the "Assign to users from a line item in a module" option. The step is configured correctly, but the problem occurs when I run the Workflow. When I run the workflow myself, where I'm…
Hi, As an admin, when a user leaves the business, i will inactivate them in the administration screen. If i go to the modules, and review the users screen, i can also change their role to no access. What are the applications of doing so? For example, if they've input data into a grid, will that data be lost, or if they've…
Hi everyone, couple questions here: I’m building an Actual vs. Budget P&L reporting model in Anaplan and would appreciate advice on the best structural approach. I’ve attached a screenshot of the desired layout. The report needs P&L items as rows, and the following as columns (line items): Actual Budget Variance $ Actual %…
Hi all! We have a connection via API with our client. They push data into Anaplan but now they request us to push data from Anaplan to their data lake. Is it possible to automate an export action, generate the .csv and client system get this files directly from Anaplan?
Hello Anaplanners, I need some guidance on how to edit the Hierarchies in the MFP - General Lists. The requirement is Rename the Level Use more Levels in the model (current model uses 4, want to use 6) The screenshot for the same is attached below for your reference. Selective access and Production Data are checked.…
We've been building a tool called aplan4sheets and we'd genuinely like input from this community — both on what we've built so far and on what we should prioritize next. The problem we set out to solve: Anaplan's Excel add-in is Windows-centric, and there's no real native way to pivot Anaplan data in Google Sheets. We…

Interested individuals will respond to this 5-minute survey to help us understand personal needs and behavior when using the add-in. The feedback provided by survey takers is essential to the roadmap of Anaplan's products.…

I have designed a simple new UX Page (Page:A) so it can be viewed on a regular laptop / monitor size screen. This Page (Page A) is also viewable on the Anapaln mobile App (with no loading issues), but involves lots of scrolling to see the whole Page content I have been trying to design a simple mobile App friendly size…

Hi, My current client has selected MuleSoft Connector to orchestrate the integrations between Anaplan and their legacy systems and they are asking what is the protocol and port(s) it uses to connect to Anaplan. I've searched through Anapedia and the Community and I was not able to find the answer, however I assume it uses…

I have a question for Model Building Level2, sprint 3, Lesson 3.5.5 and the product SKU by Distribution Center panel on the Distribution Center Summary UX page (in My Pages). I got it working, but I want to know if there is a better solution as my screen layouts are slightly different to the prototype. I used a grid and…
Hello, One of my models is generating this issue: "PLANNED Position # has selective access enabled and you may not have been granted access to any items." When I try to adjust the selective access, it then says "no items to select". I'm unsure what caused this issue and how to correct it. Any help sincerely appreciated.…
Hi Community, I have a module dimensioned by L3 (Category) and need to display the values in a module dimensioned by L4 (Items), where L4 rolls up to L3. Example: Category 1 = 10 Category 2 = 20 Category 1 ├─ Item 1 └─ Item 2 Category 2 ├─ Item 3 └─ Item 4 Expected result: Item 1 = 10 Item 2 = 10 Item 3 = 20 Item 4 = 20…
Hi everyone 👋 If you build or maintain Anaplan models, you've probably hit the same walls I kept hitting. Some basic questions about a model's structure have no single screen to answer them. You end up clicking through modules and pages one by one, or writing API scripts just to get a list. These were the gaps that…
Greetings, fellow Anaplanners. I’ve always wanted something that could take thousands of line items and help me work out where to start improving a model. So I built it. It’s called Anaplan Estate. Give it your Line Items and Actions exports, and it brings optimisation findings into an action plan, with evidence and…
