Could someone please explain what's the use of this particular time lookups function?
@dpong8898
It is getting the "current period" that is set in the Time settings and converting it to the Quarter and Year values.
Hi @dpong8898,
I see you're working on the Time Settings Learning app. I’m not sure about the specific purpose of the "Superset Choice (from Time Ranges)" line item in the time settings model, as there’s no formula and it doesn’t seem to be referenced by any other line items.
However, I can explain the superset concept at a high level. In Anaplan, a Superset is used to combine different time periods into one larger set, allowing you to use them together seamlessly in calculations. This is especially useful when different parts of your model need different time ranges.
For example, imagine your model has:
A superset includes time periods from 2020 to 2024, even if 2022 isn’t directly part of your model calendar or time ranges.
Since you're still learning Anaplan, I suggest focusing first on understanding multidimensionality and core functions. Superset is more of an advanced concept.
I hope this helps. Seyma 🌷🙂
Superset Choice?
Hi, I was hoping to get some help with this situation, where I am trying to take a list to list mapping on the left and get an output similar to the right, but the main idea is i want to be able to make the selected item (format: list), the dimension of a target module and reverse map the original source list as a list…
Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well. I'm posting because two of my coworkers are trying to use the Anaplan Excel Add-In Series 4, but they're running into an issue during the connection setup process. When they go to New → New Read-Only Connection (or New Connection) and reach the "Select a Customer" step, no…
Why in my model output is blank, after send explainability data.
