Hi Experts!
We need to export only a small set of data from Anaplan modules (Ex: Export only ACTUAL data for 2017.05 for LINE ITEM 'REVENUE'). Please suggest if this is possible using standard functionality.
Hi Dhawandeep,
Thanks for reply. We tried all possibilities but it's not working. Showed the same to Anaplan support and below is the response. May be useful for other Anaplanners in this community.
By the way, we took help of Anaplan partner and developed a Jython script to achieve what we are looking for.

I did some research and found the following :https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Anapedia-Around-the-Platform/Data-Export/ta-p/6214#ModuleDashOptions
Based in Anapedia, this is working as per designed that tabular Single Column does not accept :1. Show/hide or data filter with time, versions, lists on columns2. Show/hide or data filter with only line items on columnsHence user will need to export the module, apply the filter in Excel to extract data with specific version and currency. Apologize for the inconvenience caused."
Hi,
Yes, it is possible and quite easy to do. Just save a view with the selections you want and export that. You can even make the view dynamic by creating filters. For example you could make a filter module that has boolean values "true" for current year time periods only and use that as a filter in a view of export module. When you'd export that view, you would only export the current year.
Hope this helps! I'm happy to give more details if needed.

Hi Jakko,
Thanks for your reply. We already tried with option but it didn't work. Can you please check if this option works for Export Layout 'Tabular Singular Column'. Our module is dimensionalized module, meaning the module applies to 3-4 lists.
Hi Lokesh
It seems like your filters may not be applied correctly.
You need to apply the logic given above by Jakko and pivot the view for export in such a way that all your dimensions are in the Rows side and then apply the filters in way you want.
Cheers!
Tabular single column format won't filter anything but if you use tabular multiple column format the filters will work. You can modify a bit how data will be arranged in the file by pivoting the view (by default time is on columns but it can be changed).
Can you help me how it worked out?
Hi, we need to bulk export approximately 150 customer Management Reports as PDFs each month from Anaplan. It involves selecting each customer from the context selector, exporting to pdf and then renaming the file. Currently this is a manual process. Has anyone implemented an automated solution to bulk export Management…
Hi, I'd like to know if my issue already occurred to anyone here. I created a saved view out of a module using different hierarchical lists. In the saved view, I pivoted the dimensions and restricted the view only on a specific line item. Then, I used that saved view to import data into another module however the data…
Hi, I have the following problem to solve and I’m not sure whether it’s even possible in Anaplan. I have List A with a certain number X of elements. For selected elements from List A, based on which I create a subset, I determine the components that make up each element. There can be a maximum of 6 components. Each line…
