Creation of a Dedicated Administrator Role in Anaplan (separation from WA admin)
Hi! I would like to propose the creation of a new Administrator role within Anaplan.

Easier Way to View References in Anaplan
Hi everyone, I’ve been working as a Solution Architect for a few years, and one recurring challenge in Anaplan is understanding what a line item is referenced by.

Source Model Bulk Changes for New-UX Apps
It would be very useful to have an option to change the model at the App level. Currently, we need to switch models individually for each page, even when they all belong to the same model.
