Description: As an author of the new Idea, I want to suggest the new level of security in Add-on(s). Where we can restrict the Non - WSA User not to create a new work book using the models that they may have access to.
Example of Enhancement: If the user is not a WSA for the particular model he should not have access to, the given button(Attached Screenshots)in Anaplan [Add-ins]. So that he is not able to introduce new model in his worksheets and modify the details.

Benefit / Impact: This will restrict the user to insert and create the new worksheets with the existing Anaplan model in which we may have to give access, to him as read or write.

Hi Nitika,

Thank you for your suggestion.

I have invited you to the add-in feedback group, we have sessions currently about adding additional add-in security settings in the tenant console so you might want to sign up for one of the sessions.

Great idea. This would be especially useful in large models where users may be unfamiliar with the modules and their usage within the model

Allow non-WSAs to view source module name in UX.
When a user clicks the ellipsis in a grid card they should be able to see the name of the source module. This empowers end users with the ability to connect to the source data they see in the UX to the module in the backend. It also enables end users to pull the data into Google Sheets or Excel.
A function that identifies all saved views which filters are broken
I would like the function to identify all saved views which filters are broken(error).
Add feature to “Use Account Style Drilling” in AnaplanXL Grids
This feature to display children above the parent when drilling in is available in AnaplanXL freeform but not grids. This would be a useful feature in Grids as well. As a user, I would expect to have same/similar functionality between Grids and Freeform.
