When submitting changes to line item, and you know you did mistake. Please let us ABORT calculation by Anaplan. It will save tie and resources when building model.
YES!!
The good news is that this capability will be present in Polaris. The bad news is that it is not really possible in the Classic engine.
Thank you for your comment. Is that possible to prepare article to explain why it is so hard to make it in the Classic Engine? What we can do as developers to minimalize impact from this inconvenience, except being spotless on writing formulas?Acceptance goes with understanding.
Thx in advance
I've created an extension that attempts to detect common formula errors (such as incorrect data type / missing LOOKUP/SUMs etc), among other features. I've posted about it here: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Anaplan-Platform/Better-Formula-Editor-for-Anaplan-A-new-Chrome-Firefox-Edge/m-p/128250/highlight/true#M32475
I really agree with your suggestion!
It's really waste of time to wait for Anaplan's reaction🤨
Thank you
@david.harding I have never understood why Anaplan can very quickly generate an accurate time estimate for how long we will be in the penalty box, but can't simply abort the change in the first place.
Basically when model is following planual and disco then time spend for calculating error message is supposed to take minimal time. In new models where there is not much formulas it takes 20 seconds… maybe this is the reason Anaplan is so reluctant doing this functionality for us.
Yes!!
We have discovered that Line Item Subsets cause unexpected behaviour in Polaris: their mere existence adds significantly to model size and calculation demand. This overhead is undocumented (it appears in neither Anapedia nor the Planual) and is not visible to the model builder during building. The only way to detect it is…
From my perspective, the Anaplan community has three purposes: Customers/Partners to share feedback with Anaplan so the roadmap can be designed with those who actually use—and pay for— the product(s) in mind. Status - Mixed success leaning towards failure— as of about 4 years ago, Anaplan stopped interacting with and…
Currently, when approvers are assigned dynamically from a module line item, a Decision Task proceeds as soon as any one of the assigned users approves it. Please extend the “Require approval from all assignees” option, which is currently available for manually selected approvers, to dynamically assigned approvers as well.…
