What's the best way to build a model to track and forecast the amoritization of deferred commissions? We know the amortization periods, deferred commssions on the balance sheet, and want to track the amortization over time in Anaplan.

Your question is very large, but here's one thing: I'd say the "trick" is to have an additional time list (that you create) that you can cross with the anaplan time dimension in a module. This way you can load the commission amount (past and future to plan), spread it over the amortization period and see the deferred waterfall overtime.
Hi everyone 👋 If you build or maintain Anaplan models, you've probably hit the same walls I kept hitting. Some basic questions about a model's structure have no single screen to answer them. You end up clicking through modules and pages one by one, or writing API scripts just to get a list. These were the gaps that…

The key requirement is that the existing entity structure should continue to be applicable for all reporting and consolidation periods through December 2025, while the new…

The problem we set out to solve: Anaplan's Excel add-in is Windows-centric, and there's no real native way to pivot Anaplan data in Google Sheets. We…
