Is there a way in Anaplan from a TEXT to understand if it contains non-numeric characters (alphabetical letters and symbols)?
Thank you!
Hello @JoanaNdreu
You can use the find function.Find function
@JoanaNdreu : if you are interested only in finding if a text contains any non-numeric characters, you can use the function VALUE() …
If value(line-item_txt) *0 = 0 then line-item contains only numeric else contains some other chars.
hope it helps

Hi ,
Yes, You can use functions like FINDITEM, CODE, VALUE, or compare the original text with TEXT(VALUE(Text)) to identify whether a text string contains non-numeric characters.
TEXT(VALUE(Text))
However, Anaplan does not have a built-in regex function, so detecting letters or symbols usually requires a custom validation formula.
Thanks!

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…
