Hello,
Is there a way I can create a line chart that connects the Actual data and the Forecast?
Attached is the screenshot from Excel that I plan to create in Anaplan.
Thanks,
Tom
Hey @tompatrick.ting ,
You can bring Actuals and Forecast data in one common line item (applying If else condition on Time dimension) and then create a line chart.
However, the line chart won't of 2 different colors as shown in excel.

In one line item bring data of actuals and forecast and then populate the graph it would work for you.

If one line item is used for continuity purposes, the shift to a different version (color change/show or hide a version, etc.) cannot be observed. Hence multiple line items are used, and conditions are put such that 'NaN' shows up instead of zeroes to avoid erros in graphical representation caused by trailing and leading zeros.
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.

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…
