To show only limited list items in the dropdown while saving a scenario

Himaniam · 2025-04-02T00:56:41+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

We have a save scenario button on our UI, when the user clicks on this button, backend process is executed. The backend process runs a set of actions. For the backend process to be triggered, User needs to choose a scenario from the dropdown list so that all actions save against the chosen scenario. While presenting the list of scenarios to user to choose from, we want to filter on the list items and allow only a few list items to be presented to user. Is there a way to achieve this in Anaplan.

Here is the snapshot of the pop-up window that shows up to the user when they click on the save scenario button from UI to execute the backend process:

Hi @Himaniam,

Creating a dynamic subset for the scenarios to be selected, and then publishing the subset selection as an input on an Admin UX page, could be a practical solution. Let me know if this works for you.

Hello,

Solution 1: Creating selective access to the dropdown list. So for each user dropdown can be restricted differently.

Solution 2: Use List subset for specific dropdown. This method should be used if dropdown is not user specific.

Let me know if this works for you.

Hi @Himaniam,

As mentioned by Seyma, Using the subset in the import module is ideal solution
Let me know if subset does not work

Thanks
