What could be the underlying reason behind allowing lookup only through list formatted line items, not through a normal text formatted line item?
The data is stored/calculated at the intersection of the different dimensions (Lists, Time, Versions)
Text values are not part of the list definition (Name and Code) are, so that is why we use formatted line items, and use FINDITEM to return the list member for use in modelling
It is not the same structures as Excel, which uses generic rows and columns. Anaplan is much more structured than that
It would be easier not to have to use FINDITEM to match/transform, but that is a whole different topic!!
I hope that explains it

Hi,
I assume it's a matter of performance. I can't imagine how lookup function could work without a list. Even if there will be x records for a single line item text formated, there have to be created a kind of temporary list.

It's not really a performance issue (although it probably would be!), it is just not the way Anaplan works.
Everything has to be linked back to a specific object. Text is a free form data point, so can't be used to tie into structures
Why are non‑admin users unable to view Module information on the Anaplan page, while workspace administrators can? (After click the three dots on the grids right up corner) Are there any configuration options that allow non‑admin users to view module details without granting full workspace administrator access?
Just like the main question above, I wanted to try out the new feature on the board where you can you the insights panel to put additional cards. However, I wanted to synchronize scroll a card on the main board with the card on the insights panel but I can't find where it might be.
