Do Anaplan Consolidation /Fluence consultants could not be accountants? How they will understand the consolidation process if they don't have the accounting and practical expertise? Thanks !!!!
Anaplan consultants get the requirements from BA (Business Analysts) or PO (Product Owners), who are SMEs and understand organization financial processes, understand the functional requirements from stakeholders, and translate the requirement into user stories working with Solution Architects or MA, who then further break it down and design the system from an Anaplan perspective.

The problem we set out to solve: Anaplan's Excel add-in is Windows-centric, and there's no real native way to pivot Anaplan data in Google Sheets. We…
