How to get the current user for a line item and is there a way to get the time stamp
Hi @143kishornaidu
If you are looking for a solution to get the current date in Anaplan, then you can refer below solution where I have answered same question
For fetching latest timestamp in Anaplan, you need to use Anaplan batch script to import system time as answered above
Cheers!!
Hello @143kishornaidu ,
To show the current user, use the formula ITEM(Users). If required, you can turn off "Show All Users" in the blueprint view. Whenever user logs in, line item shows his/her user id.
Since Anaplan is a web-based application, we generally show date in Anaplan by running an action. This can be achieved by Integration where action runs everyday to update Date.
Thanks,

@143kishornaidu your question is sort of subject to multiple interpretations. So besides Vamsi's interpretation above. Here's other interpretations to your question both of which will give a timestamp as well.
2. If you are referring to who updated the line item in Blue Print mode (e.g. formula, summaries) then you can go to History tab, select the period you want reported for and Click show history. You may need to export it to a file after which you can Filter by the line item you are interested in. This will actually provide you the information in item 1 as well plus all other stuff.

I used the approach you explained above and was able to build a module by user dimension. Add line item as you mention and its working as designed.
Is there a way to now use this value in a module that does not have user dimension. When I try to do that, it still take All User (Top Level Aggregation).
@sagarkpr . I think here import from Works From users module to non User Module
Hello folks, Does anyone know how to work around the Polaris limitation of using the Formula or Ratio summary method alongside the Closing Balance within the same line item? I have a Business Unit list where the total (All BUs) must display the Corporate (1 of 20 leaf items under All BUs total) number of Unique Customers.…
