Version selection in modules
Hi All, I notice when I set up a time range that I am able to select either no time dimension, or model calendar, or the time range created by me. However for Version dimension, only notice 2 options in drop down All or none. Would it not be good to be able to choose the specific versions to which a certain module apply?

Month and version numbers could be one or two digits depending on the date, so not sure about the…
What am I doing wrong on Module 6.8.3?

Filter data on criteria that can change month to month
I'm fairly new to Anaplan and I'm sure if I'm approaching this issue correctly so I thought I'd ask here. We have sales rep data that shows what "compensation group" they belong to for a specific month, along with what they sold and earned in that month. I'm trying to create a FYTD report on this that shows each…

Question on Calculating the Redistribution Factor
Hi, I would like to know if the way I'm calculating the distribution factor is correct? The only problem I believe would be the denominator, because I only want the product values and not the product values total. Any advise would help. Thank you

Designate a dummy module as a Group, show alternate formatting for clearer model building experience
Similar to how you can set a line item to different formats to help readability and organization, I would like to have similar functionality in the module view window. Organizing the module view in a similar way would be really helpful as module count grows in large models. Currently the "best practice" is to create a…
Tree View Available even if we have large lists
Hi, Tree View have to be available even if the list is large. Anaplan could show it on different pages. It's a big limitation to the client if they can't see the tree view list.
Tree View List Limit
Is there a particular reason why I lose the ability to view a list in tree when I exceed a certain number of list items? Does anyone know what the limit is on the number of items I can add to a list before I lose the ability to see it in tree view. Thanks, Mark

Central model up-/downtime management
After @DaanishSoomar posted this article , I wondered why there is actually no central admin setting to wake-up a model automatically.

NewUX view Source Module
In the NewUX, you cannot go directly to the source module. When selected it takes you to your default dashboard page in the classic version.

NUX : Selector - Equal treatment of direct change and hierarchical filtering
There is some unconvincing behaviour regarding the difference in handling of direct selector changes and selector changes as a result of hierarchical filtering. There is a hierarchical structure consisting of G1 Region, G2 Country and G3 Location. There is a board page like this one, on which two cards are placed. The…
