Aggregation Functions Other Than SUM
There are several types of functions in Anaplan: aggregation, numeric, financial, time and date, logical, text, call center planning, and miscellaneous functions. As a model contributor, you are probably already aware of the SUM function in Anaplan, which is an aggregation function, but how many other aggregation functions exist and how can you use them? Have you run into a need to check if any or all booleans are selected? Do you have a need to aggregate data across time periods?
This 9 minute micro-training (Aggregation Functions other than SUM) may be very helpful to understand what's possible when using other, perhaps less familiar, aggregation functions in Anaplan!

Text aggregation functions are really interesting to me, but they definitely take a bit more thought than the standard SUM and LOOKUP. I find that most new model builders I run into have no idea that Anaplan has so many alternative aggregation functions.
