POWER function is unable to calculate all equations correctly.
Cube root of '-8' is '-2'
But when I tried the "POWER(-8, 1 / 3)" calculation, it resulted as "NaN" (shown in Image)
Thanks for the reply @MisbahI have a complex formula where POWER was causing the issue and I used the similar workaround by putting a conditional statement on the equation that is inside the power function but wanted to check if there are any better options.Please let me know if you come through any other efficient solution
Thank You Once Again
I've flagged this up with our developers who are discussing. It is currently a limitation and potentially something that could be made to work. Unfortunately I have no workaround for you...
@Akhilesh9025
Although it looks like the limitation on the product side. Here is what you can do
You can make the negative number into Positive, Apply POWER function to it with "-" sign.

We're looking to feed live or near-live Anaplan data into Claude through MCP, but our current approach — exporting CSV files via the Anaplan Bulk Export API, loading them into MySQL, and querying from there — has a significant lag (hour-long turnaround). Curious if anyone has found a faster path, whether that's through the…
Has anyone tested Analyst’s response quality/speed on large, sparse models (think 10+ dimensions, millions of line items)? Wondering if there’s a practical ceiling before it starts timing out.
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…
