Dynamic Display by Language Selection
Problem Statement
Ever wonder how to display your data in a different language format in Anaplan or simply just want to cater to language display options based on user selection?
Step-by-step guide
We need all the lists that require translation to be defined and it is best to have modules with definitions of each language to be published in the UX.
Note: remember to use Numbered list.
To make it driven by the user who consumed the dashboard, create a Parameter module with a List formatted line item for language selection. Then link all the display name properties’ formula of the numbered list to LOOKUP for the selected language. Then use the same lists for the modules needed throughout the model.
For better maintenance of the language definition, publish the modules with list definitions to the UX.
