  • Re-order Uncategorized pages

Page builders can now re-order Uncategorized pages under the Contents section within Apps. They can also drag and drop pages within an App from one category to another including the Uncategorized section using the grabber icon. Using this feature, page builders can create their own custom sequential view of pages to be displayed to the end users. Page builders can still change the order of custom categories on the left hand panel, excluding the Uncategorized section. To gain more visibility when a new page is created , duplicated (or) moved from one category to another, the page will be available to view on top of the respective category.

  • [Workflow customers] Do you ever get asked about report distribution? Did you know that Anaplan Workflow might have just the thing for you?

Did you know that you can make any of your Management Reports the subject of a Workflow task or approval?

This means you can, either as part of a wider planning process or as part of a recurring schedule, issue direct links to your reports out to your stakeholders. The emails that users receive a clear and concise with a button that will bring them directly into Anaplan, authenticating where needed, and landing them on the exact report where they need to take action!

While it might not be the "send a PDF as an email attachment" solution, this approach brings tons of flexibility while maintaining the strict access controls and data security you'd want when it comes to enterprise management reports. If this sounds interesting then you should definitely give it a go!
