Hi!

I have a date (14 days) in a list and want to use the Offset function there.

Can I do this?

Hi @KubotaNatsuki

I believe it is a custom list and in this case you can't use offset function. If you share the whole scenario and desired end result, I can help you with some workaround.

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply!

I could be implemented by using list property.

Thanks!!!!!

Hello @KubotaNatsuki ,

If I understand it correctly, you have a list with "days".

If you check the anapedia (https://help.anaplan.com/4f5a095c-0e7a-4f1a-b6ea-0ef8f88d6c3f-OFFSET), it mentions that it allows you to offset lists - although I have never used it in that regard. It could be something to investigate.

I could suggest you though another alternative, if the codes are numbers, you could use a calculation and a finditem to drive it:

Use value to convert the code into number (https://help.anaplan.com/a2cbfb0f-64c5-4a9c-b1f4-11eb41b54fa8-VALUE)
Create a General Assumptions module (no dimensions) with an item (numerical) that marks the offset period
Convert the code back from number to text using text (https://help.anaplan.com/7c779d7b-c753-43f0-bc10-43e78b9b8572-TEXT)
Use finditem to identify the offseted list item.

Hope that makes sense!

Enter your due dates in column A.
Enter the number of days to add or subtract in column B. You can enter a negative number to subtract days from your start date, and a positive number to add to your date.
In cell C2, enter =A2+B2, and copy down as needed.
