Hello Team ,
I am very very new to Anaplan, and I want to learn (Functionally & Technically) and want explore this tool.
Please suggest topics and study material.
Hi @agni_gold
I would suggest that you start with the following:
1. Get access to Anaplan, so you can start building models in your own sandbox environment. Nothing beats actual hands on experience.
2. Go through at least L1 and perhaps L2 of the model building courses offered in https://learning.anaplan.com/totara/dashboard/ These 2 courses will teach you basic navigation within Anaplan, while you slowly get familiar with the jargons, and best practices in Anaplan..
3. Go through Best Practice documents in https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Best-Practices/tkb-p/communitykb
4. Subscribe to the forum that you just posted this question, and check it out constantly. It's very likely that a problem you'll face in Anaplan has been faced by your counterparts from all over the world. There's healthy ongoing discussion, and later once you feel more confident you can also contribute to the community.
Thanks,
LipChean
Hi @agni_gold.,
Welcome to Anaplan world.
Best is to start on the learning platform with Level 1 and Level 2.
What I also like a lot is the Anaplan Essentials course, which walk you through the Anaplan capabilities, how hyperblock works, connected planning concept, etc.
So you can take Level 1 and Essentials together, then follow by a more advance model building course with Level 2!

Agree with @LipChean_Soh and @Manuela_Apostol
You should also have as reference the Planual by @DavidSmith . This is a reference guide to best practice articles for the most commonly asked questions.
Probably the best document out there.
Hi @agni_gold,
If you want to understand the possibilities and current use cases please do explore the app hub too!

Hello, I’m running into a recurring issue when importing CSV files into Anaplan, specifically with dates in February for the years 2028, 2029, and beyond. Here’s what’s happening: In Excel, the date format is set to Custom (e.g., 2/26/2025). When imported into Anaplan, the date is interpreted as 26-Feb, where: Month = Feb…
I have an issue where I am getting the expected result from RANKCUMULATE when using one dimension, but when I add an additional scenario dimension to the module, it doesn't calculate the way I'd expect. Here are some screenshots to explain the case: Module 1 - calculates cumulative total for list items in list "Age"…
Hey everyone, I wanted to share the Anaplan Python SDK with you. It's a Python Library that wraps all Anaplan APIs and makes it easier to interact with Anaplan programmatically. It is mostly designed with Data Integration Scenarios in mind, but it does support all APIs including ALM, SCIM, Audit, and Cloud Works. Please…
