Event recording available! Modeling tips and tricks

Last month we hosted a challenge inviting Community members to share their thoughts on modeling best practices — over 30 tips were shared! Yesterday, we held an event highlighting that guidance every model builder should know.

Jason Blinn (@jasonblinn), Principal Solution Architect and Employee Community Boss at Anaplan, and Alexandru Pavel (@alexpavel), Solution Architect at Keyrus and Anaplan Community Boss, hosted a lively discussion on organization, documentation, performance, testing, and more.
