    Hi Yugnesh 

     

    Thanks for organising the Meet up. 
    I was curious about early access and I got the impression that it was different to the Beta of NUX - is this right? And is it worth signing up for?

    Thanks!

    Hi Yugnesh! 

     

    Thanks again for organising this and coming back with the notes. 

     

    I just wanted to add that I only saw this post as I was looking through, maybe worth tagging people as they get notifications only when a previous thread they've posted on gets a new post or if they're tagged. 

     

    Are there plans inplace for the next meetup? 

     

    Thanks,

     

    Usman

    Hi @usman.zia, I didn't realise that about tagging people. I thought everyone that signed up to the Anaplan Modelers Forum got an email notification about posts?

     

    Thanks

    Hi @Yugnesh.Patel 

     

    I think that you only get notifications to a thread you've posted in not a whole forum area unless you subscribe to it (I don't think joining the group does this automatically). 

     

    Thanks,
