Hi, All
I am struggling with retrieving a display name of a numbered list in a Property.
My understanding is that Name(Product) will retrieve #1, #2,,, in my case.
Could you give me some pointers ?
Thanks in advance.

@gregoryTan ,
As @VIGNESH.M stated, you can reference the Display Name of the Product numbered list. So if the numbered list for Product is Product Flat and if the display name of Product Flat is text, then the formula would be PIC &"_"&'Product Flat'.Display Name[Lookup:Product] as long as Product is list formatted. If it is not a list formatted, you will have to have the Product code accessible (in this list or preferably a module). This is another reason why having codes are so important, especially when using numbered lists.

Hi Greg,
Pick the Display Name from List Property directly. Don't use Name(Item(Product)), it will return #1,#2.

Just to add some.
I would like to have the column F in the attached file for a display name of this list (concatenate "Product" + "PIC"). But the problem is since "Product" is a numbered list, I cannot have "Product" in TEXT format while I need to convert "Product" into TEXT to concatenate "Product" and "PIC"
HI @gregoryTan,
In this case use lookup and bring in the Display name.
Ex: Product list.Display name[lookup:Product] where Product list is a list and Display Name is a property in that list and Product is the product list formatted property in your destination list.
I hope this helps!

Thank you, Rob. What youve proposed perfectly worked for me.
I recently ran into the same issue and came across this thread looking for a solution. What you proposed worked perfectly for me as well, Rob. Thanks for sharing!
So one of our models has quite a few user dimensioned filtering modules which we use in UX to show user specific information. This being said, I know Anaplan doesn't place a limit on the number of users that can be added to a model. but when I try to add a new user . the model processes change for ~7-8 mins before throwing…
Hello folks, Does anyone know how to work around the Polaris limitation of using the Formula or Ratio summary method alongside the Closing Balance within the same line item? I have a Business Unit list where the total (All BUs) must display the Corporate (1 of 20 leaf items under All BUs total) number of Unique Customers.…
Has anyone found success using Anaplan XL with Polaris models in a shared drive with or without concurrent users? My team has experienced a variety of errors, login failures, etc. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. We've been recommended to save and edit files locally, which helps but certainly with its limitations…
