Create a Formula to Reference a User's Model Role
Dynamic cell access can be extremely challenging with long user lists, especially if you want a user's read/write abilities to be dependent on their model role. If we were able to reference a user's model role via a formula, we could create role specific criteria for dynamic cell access.
Ability to Reorder Users
It will be very helpful if there is an option to reorder the names in the Users list. Since we can use users as a dimension now, some of our use cases need users in alphabetic orders or to have all users in one role together. This will help in user administration as well.
SSO on different Tenant
Dear Community, I need your help, in my group some users need access to a Model hosted in a different Tenant, let's say Tenant 2. On Tenant 1, users are in SSO and it works perfectly fine. On Tenant 2, users are in non-SSO and it works. However, I am challenged by security team to switch for SSO and I do not know how to do…

Managing frequent structural changes during development
Imagine the following scenario: You need to make regular structural changes to a deployed model (for example, weekly changes to the switchover date). You can make these changes by setting revision tags in the development model. However, you also have a development cycle that spans the structural changes. What do you do?…

Export user list
Tenant Admins should be able to export a list of users (similar to how workspaces can be exported). You should also be able to export all attributes including userid/email address. When in Administration> Users you can enable and disable users, search and filter but there is no way to export the data.
Hide/Unhide an APP instead of Pages
Currently do not have a feature to hide an unwanted/In progress APP to not show it when end users login. Currently we can only Delete or manage the access to page level. Which is a daunting task if we have more than 10 pages.
Model Migration from Anaplan Cloud workspace to Google Cloud workspace
Hi Anaplan, Does anyone know if it is possible to migrate a model from the Anaplan Cloud to the Google Cloud and vice versa? If a model has been constructed in a customer's Anaplan Cloud workspace can it still be migrated to a different customer's Google Cloud workspace using a Model ID and Workspace ID? Any information…

Option to overwrite line items with Read Access Driver through an Import action.
Hi All, I am in a situation where the users are uploading a data file into Anaplan, that we are then wanting to create a report based on, to highlight some issues, that the end users then should be able to comment on. The problem I am facing is that loading the data file into a module, we want to show the raw data inputs,…
Ability for Non-WSA users to update Switchovers and do Copyovers
Hello, I'm looking at giving certain users access to update switchover for Native versions, and copy over activities, reducing reliance on the Tech team. It looks like it's these types of actions are only accessible to WSA users. Is there another way around this? I initially thought that these can only be accessed by a…
ALM explained—Part 3: avoiding data loss
Introduction In part two of the new ALM Explained series, we discussed the best practices for testing and validating changes prior to deploying them to production models. However, we also know that testing protocols are not always followed, especially if the change is an emergency patch, and sometimes, the synchronization…
Delete Dormant Users from the Anaplan Tenant Admin Tool
The ability not only to disable but also delete dormant users directly from The Anaplan Tenant Admin tool. The assumption is that the Anaplan Tenant Admin tool can also offer a feature to enable the Tenant Admin to identify how long a specific user or group of users have not logged on to Anaplan models facilitating the…
Model Building and Correct Role
I just started at a new company that uses Anaplan. My boss would like me to learn to build models and dashboards in Anaplan. I understand that I might need to have a workspace administrator role in order to build models. Is that correct? What would you advise is the best course of action for someone learning Anaplan who…
Setting production lists

Add "Previous Value" and "New Value" to History Log for Changes to Contents Settings
The ability to hide modules from users is key to security setup. In many cases, I cannot use the Role based security to prevent users from entering or changing data in a Data module, because I need them to be able to import data from the Data Hub with an action. Using the Contents Settings to hide those modules solves that…

Selective Access on Flat List Subsets
Currently, selective access write permissions must be granted to a parent item for end users to modify an item's subset membership. In the case of a flat list, the items do not have a parent, which means users cannot modify the inclusion of these items in the subset. This has created challenges within my organization, as…

Edit user profiles for name and new email
Can Anaplan add option to edit existing users instead of deleting and adding? A good reason is for a person who gets married and needs to change their last name for an example or update the users email address.
Re-Order Categories in NUX
As a Workspace Admin, I need the ability to re-order the categories that are created in NUX. As it stands right now it appears that they will auto-sort to Alphabetical order and/or Numerical order. I cannot always rely on this as sometimes I may use a numbering system for the pages themselves and it becomes confusing to…
Show whether a line item is used in an action
I'd like ability to see, in blueprint mode for a module, whether a line item is used in an action. This, along with an existing Idea requesting to see if a line item is used as a filter for a Saved View, would significantly speed up model clean-up time
See Locked Accounts Due to Non-Successful Logins in Administration
We recently had a situation where a user 'locked' their account because they tried to log in multiple times with as a non-SSO user, by providing email address and password, when they were checked as a SSO user in our environment. The result was that their account was 'locked' on the Anaplan side, however we had no…
Enable MFA for SFDC Tab + Frontdoor
Customers who leverage the SFDC tab rely on MFA through SFDC. SSO is not enabled in the Anaplan platform as a result (or users are set as exception users if SSO is enabled). The consequence of this configuration is that end users have the ability to access Anaplan via the front door without any kind of MFA. This is a…
