Bespoke Anaplan timescale

Hi,

Is there a way to set up the fiscal year in our models differently to any of the options given? For example, our FY2018 runs for 13 4-week periods from 15th July 2017 (so does not start or end on either the last day or a day nearest the end of a calendar month) with no 5-week periods.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Joe

If you guys have not yet started actual development on your model, then best option for you could be to Not to use Anaplan's native timescale and use a custom line items to define your time periods and then write formulas during modelling using combination of If, Select and Lookup formulae to accomplish your calculation needs.

Cheers.
