Is there any function in Anaplan to calculate Standard deviation. In excel there is a function "STDEV". Need to get the standard deviation for a product across 36months of data.
I haven't seen a function for this, but you can create your own formula. The one I've done to try and work out the standard deviation of weekly sales is:
SQRT(POWER(Sales - WEEKVALUE(Sales) / WEEKVALUE(h_count), 2) / WEEKVALUE(h_count))
h_count is a line item I added to show me days in the week. I've colour coded it above to show how the formula has been built up.
Hope this helps
We're looking to feed live or near-live Anaplan data into Claude through MCP, but our current approach — exporting CSV files via the Anaplan Bulk Export API, loading them into MySQL, and querying from there — has a significant lag (hour-long turnaround). Curious if anyone has found a faster path, whether that's through the…
Has anyone tested Analyst’s response quality/speed on large, sparse models (think 10+ dimensions, millions of line items)? Wondering if there’s a practical ceiling before it starts timing out.
We've been building a tool called aplan4sheets and we'd genuinely like input from this community — both on what we've built so far and on what we should prioritize next. 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…
