Show a "Used in NUX Pages" column on the New Modules View
In Anaplan Classic, in the old modules view, there is the column "Used in Dashboards" which informs of all classic dashboards using each module. This same concept is needed within the New Module View for New UX Pages, so that model builders can quickly identify all NUX Pages using a module. I know that the opposite is…

In the user experience (UX) part, it's the UX user who chooses the name of the file to import. Then, the ID becomes the File Name + ID. For example, if the ID…

Search box in 'Model Management' Dialog Box
Hi, When we click on 'Manage Models' dialog box, we get an option to select a workspace. When we select a workspace, we get a list of models to choose from. But in case there are numerous model in a workspace, then it becomes tedious to search for without a search box. Can we have a search box to filter ? Thanks, Aravind M

"Applies to order" in formulae
Does the order that we list LOOKUP: \ SUM: arguments also need to be consistent with the "applies to" ordering? Logically it would as I believe the reason behind this is to do with how Indexes are built in the background but am uncertain and would love confirmation.
OEG Best Practice: Dimension order
Dimension order affects calculation performance Ensuring consistency in the order of dimensions will help improve the performance of your models. This consistency is relevant for modules and individual line items. Why does the order matter? Anaplan creates and uses indexes to perform calculations. Each cell in a module…

Add Folders for Modules and Lists
Similar to the idea posted here, but with this idea could be a possible solution? * Add folders to object contents (e.g. module, list, and actions). * Allow the creation of sub-folders. It goes without saying, but this would really improve model organisation, especially for larger models. The functionality could be similar…
