Copy Data Shown in Drill Down New UX
Not sure how many people have stumbled upon this but, it is not currently possible to copy data from a table presented when drilling down in the New UX. Not sure what is preventing this from happening but hopefully a quick fix that has multiple benefits.
New UX: Notification Action Security
Hi, The notification action in the UX pages seems to be improving with the introduction of sending it to users based on module data. It would be useful if we could limit the security on these notification actions so that random users do not run the action accidentally. For now, an alternative is to create the same…
Reject entire import if there's an error
I am building a model where I need to reject entire import whenever there's any error during import process. As of now them action runs and the module/list is getting populated but the cell which had incorrect value(reason for the error) is not, leaving it blank. This case is not ideal for the customer and they want to…
Force the API cell read to include Row Header Labels.
When using the data read API, any row dimensions do not have headers. This is an option in the Export tab when using the UI. When trying to process the results via code, I have run into issues a few times where this is a problem. Please consider always including the row label headers or at a minimum provide a setting to…
Indication in blue print if a Line Item is used as DCA
There should be a column in blue print view of a module like "Referenced By" highlighting modules where a line item is used as a DCA
Allow for more control around duplicating, adjusting, and managing Exports
Imagine you need to update an export with a new column, but you want to retain the previous export for another group. In order to create this new use case, you now have to create an entire new export OR you have to inform the other team that you are adding in additional columns (even if you are allowed). Once you do fix…
Execute Import Action from Source Model
Currently, the import action needs to be defined and executed on the destination model. (Import by "Pull") Though the authority of the destination model should be set, it will be useful to execute the import action from the import source model. The improvement will be helpful to enable freely set the action execution…
Mobile App Usage Data Monitoring
As a client Anaplan Tenant Administrator, I would like to have the ability to monitor how my Anaplan mobile app users are interacting with my Anaplan platform. So that I have a better understanding of how my Anaplan end users are interacting with the platform via the Anaplan mobile app.
Sort Module Overview in Settings by Cell Count
I was wondering if it is possible to sort the modules by their cell count in the settings. At the moment there is only the possibility to export the model overview and then sort it in Excel for example. This extra step would be saved by having a built-in sorting function. For me it is important to sort the modules by their…
In NUX, Ability to add cards referencing different models in the same Dashboard
Currently in NUX, we don't have the ability to point different cards in the same dashboard to different models. E.g. The customer wants to see milestones that are defined in the R&D portfolio planning model and input the volume to calculate the cost that resides in the Finance Model, all in one dashboard. Would love to…
NewUX: Header alignment improvement with design principles
NewUX should follow the basic rule of design, the principle of alignment. The row header and Item should be aligned on top, and the column header should be aligned on the right, this simple adjustment will greatly improve the visibility. Following is comparison with tableau which follow the principle of alignment. (quiet…
"Search" box for the list when list is assigned as a line item format
As a model builder, I would prefer to have a "search" box to look for a list name when I assign a list as a line item format. Currently, I can only scroll to look for a list name. "Search" box is more efficient than scrolling when the list is quite extended . What do you think?
Differentiate if you are Importing into a Module or a List on the Actions system view
Create a new naming convention based off of the action being either an import to a Module or a List. EG. The L8 and 9 and 4th row would have List in the action section and the 3rd row would have Module in the name. This would be used to quickly reference things and make it easier to do research.
New Source Files should be accessible by all Admins as default
When we are creating new data feeds to Anaplan via API, it will set the new file on private as default, which you can't change afterwards anymore. In our case the file would be created by our 'AnaplanCoE' user we are using for the API. It would be great if you can change the file that it will be the default for everyone or…
Decimal places default value to be 2 instead of 0
By default, when changing number to have decimal places, the number of places is 0. After finishing L1 model building course, I realized that most of the time the number of digital places is changes to 2, so I suggest it would be the default value for that action.
Drill Down View Enhancements
Drill downs in Anaplan Modules should have a feature for checking what each part of the formula written does. For example if there is a If condition with a nested loop with multiple formulas and conditions in it, then there should be a provision to select what each condition does regardless of the condition being True or…
Hide items on the model map
As we put headings as empty modules, these then appear on the model map. Could we not include zero cell modules on the model map, or give the builder the ability to exclude.
Search Option
Hello Modeler's I would like suggest one enhancement or feature, this is the thing I feel like anaplan should have search option. As we know most of us not like to scroll a lot for what we need. I found this while doing import action from anaplan with connect to anaplan models.There will be a lot of saved views we have and…
Google Sheet Addin: Remove leading spaces from Lists items
Our primary purpose for pulling data from Anaplan into Google Sheets is to use it as a data source. This purpose is made significantly more difficult by the formatting of list items brought in through the add in. Specifically, lists are formatted with leading spaces as you can see by the " Bookings" member in the…
Conditional Formatting Expansion
I have a need to have more than 3 "anchors" for conditional formatting. I've used an additional line item to try to use shading between the three standard anchors but that is not an ideal look. Preference would be to have at least 5.
Add Wildcard Functionality to Anaplan Connect Scripts
When working with the latest updates to Anaplan Connect I noticed a few of the scripts that require specific List IDs would be more effective if there was a wildcard option. This would allow users to pull every list from a model and all the related properties.
New UX - Freeze Card/Action & Add Name Label for Page Selectors
Ability to freeze/fix a grid or an action on the top/any part of the page - So when the end user scrolls down, the frozen grid will also move along and will be visible throughout the page Ability to add name labels on/beside the page selectors in a page - In case of multiple page selectors, labels will clarify which…
LastUpdate Function to retrieve timestamp of Data entry
We need a function which can give us timestamp on last data entry for a specific cell. This will help us to compare that time stamp with our custom date in some specific use cases. example: Todays Date: Line item to capture today's date via daily data refresh Order Date : User entry Line Item Time(Day) formatted Ordered…
New UX: Send notifications / share page with context
It would be helpful if the recipient of a notification or a link to a shared page could see the same context as the sender, and not have to select the right dimensions themselves. Use case: Person A enters data and notifies person B to approve or comment on the new entry. P.S. This is possible using the Process Builder,…
Enable user to choose picture size
From 1 line to several, so that a same dashboard can have several use cases (compact table to work on, then small/medium/large images to have a recap to browse).
Allowing Time Sum function to accept 1st argument a function
I would like to ask if you may give timesum function ability to accept other function within timesum parentheses [ex: Timesum(previous(revenue),start period, end period)]. The main reason I asked this, I would like to calculate the average 3 month based on previous figure. [Excel example] In meantime, I would also like to…
Remove Selective Access for a module
We encountered a situation where we had selective Access enabled for Regions. A user had following access: Region 1 - Write Region 2 - Write Region 3 - Read Region 4- Read Region 5 - Write. We had to create a boolean filter on Regions. Since, the user has only read access to Region 3 and 4, he could not set the filter for…
Selective Summaries: Set Summary individually for each dimension
Sometimes, it's the case that we do not need summaries for all dimensions that are applied to a module - I might need calculations to happen for all intersections applicable for the dimensions applied but need roll up only for one of the dimensions which is currently achieved by creating a separate module at higher level…
Cancelling Import will remove any partially imported data or list items
As a user, I would like any partially imported data or list items to be removed when I cancel an import. Currently, when an import is cancelled mid-way through, any partially imported data or list items will remain after the import is complete. However, the history will show that the import was cancelled. This will help…
Automatically set Model Builders as Page Builders in New U/X
Hi, currently if you want a Model Builder to create/amend pages in the New U/X, you've got to go into Tenant, and set them up as Page Builders - an additional manual step before people can do their day job. Is there a reason why Model Builder's shouldn't be automatically set up as page builders? That's one of the main jobs…
