Hi,
I want to calculate the minimum value but exclude all zeros.
I tried previously suggested solutions, but it is still not working. Any ideas?
@ymugeni
Create a line item (List formatted on Client) - Line item 1 -> IF amount = 0 then blank else item(clients)
Line item 2 -> Amount[MIN: Line item 1]
Hope that helps

You need to provide more info on your query. There are a lot of open ends and need more clarity.
However, There is a MIN function that you can use as an aggregation function.
The minimum summary method does not work for me because it brings back zeros, which makes sense. I want the calculation to take into consideration the minimum of the highlighted non-zero numbers only. I tried IF statements, but since it ends with Else 0, I am still getting zeros.
Hi @ymugeni
Here is the implementation of @Misbah 's solution. Using that method you'll have "Infinity" in some cells. I have added two additional line items as solution 2. You can also have a look at those.
Both solutions work fine.
Thanks!

I think you can use optimizer for this. Excluding zeros and getting minimum value.

Thank you so much for your timely solutions @Misbah, @ManjunathKN , and @ShubhamCh . The only issue is getting rid of the infinity, but this is good for now.
@ManjunathKN , can you expand on that? Any pictures or examples you can share?
@ymugeni if above solution helps then very well. You may go through the optimizer lesson, they have explained there.
In the screenshot shared by me, I have added 2 independent line items as a different solution. You can also use that solution. It won't show "Infinity" in the cells. The second line item - solution2 L2 is optional. You want to use it, use it otherwise use solution2 L1's summary (Min).
Ok, will do. Thanks.
Just as a comment to this as other people may view this article. I have used another approach to this in the past. Given you have a scenario where you want to view zero if that is the only entry (or if there are no number entries). But this needs a few more steps: What I have done then is to set up the following function Line items:—————————-Formula Numbers to review.————— (blank or your equation). summery setting MAX Max Value —————————-Numbers to review ← Dim by parent Zero Value? (Boolean).————'numbers to review' = 0 New Number to review.————if zero value? then max value[lookup parent] else numbers to review. Summery -Setting: Min Min Value & avoid Zero. ———'New number to review.' ← Dim by parent This would only generate 0 if all items where 0 else it would return the smallest value <> 0
@ymugeni you can avoid showing "infinity" by adding stage line items that will help indicate to Anaplan what level is the list item is at and what value to use depending on the level (these are using ratio aggregation). Below is the screenshot of the example.
Hi everyone, I'm looking to design a workflow and would appreciate your input or guidance on how to set this up effectively in Anaplan. So, the goal is: Once end users complete their data input, they should be able to trigger a process that: Notifies stakeholders via email with a link to a report. The report includes: A…
I've few actions in our Supply model which when run takes some time on the "generating failure dump" step at the end of the action even though the import is a full success without warning or errors. This is just a few seconds when run for a single action, however we have a process with 120 actions, and most of these…
Hi, My org is looking to explore leveraging Google Apps script to extract data out of Anaplan and update already built templates in Google Sheets. We use the Anaplan Extension currently but find it crashes often with the amount of tabs, data, etc. Has anyone used both Anaplan OAUTH 2.0 API and Goolge Apps Script to write…
