Archive Prod Model when using ALM
Good day I would like to ask how do we archive a prod model without disrupting compatibility for ALM. When i try to archive the prod model, it automatically creates a revision tag thus disrupting compatibility. Thank you!
Issue to track table of Page in NEWUX for respective module for Deployed Mode Model.
Hi Team, I hope you are doing well. I have started working on the new model of Anaplan that is already built but the problem I am facing is that I am not able to identify that a particular table on the Page of New UX is connected to the which module because the application is linked with a model which is in the deployed…
Google Sheets Add-on: remove connection owner limitation
Currently only the one person who sets up the google sheet connection to Anaplan can refresh the sheets. It will be much better since we are a team and sometimes don't want to just rely on one person to refresh the connection. Or if the person needs to take vacation, then no one can refresh the connection other than to…

Allow ALM synchronisation to be scheduled

ALM through Anaplan REST APIs
Hi, We want to integrate ALM for Anaplan models with our existing internal infrastructure for ALM. Is there a way to manage that externally (not from Anaplan UI) using some controls. Thanks
ALM Productions Lists
Hi All, This seems a basic question but I would really appreciate your collective inputs. What would be the implications if I integrate ALM on our current models without tagging lists as productions lists? Some formulas have direct references to lists which are not allowed when lists are set as production lists. Editing…
Model Migration from Anaplan Cloud workspace to Google Cloud workspace

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…

'Referenced By' Column in Blue Print View should expand or drop down to show full detail
Hi Anaplan, The 'Referenced By' column in the blue print view should expand or drop down to show full details. This would be really usefull as you can instanty see where a line item is being referenced if it has multiple references. Thanks, Usman

Hi, I'm wondering where I can find documentation for the ALM APIs in the April 25th platform update. * Access a new set of Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) APIs that allow you to change the model mode offline to online and run multiple synchronizations in parallel.
Adding to Numbered List using Create
Hi, I (full access user) have created a process where my data list is updated in the following way: 1) I created a numbered list (purely for the "create" function), and published a module referencing this list to a dashboard along with the create button. 2) Users can then create new line items, fill in data, and run a…
NUX pages no longer visible

How can I display which models are linked via ALM?
Given a model that's in production, is there somewhere that I can show what its ALM source model is, even if there isn't a later revision tag in the source model? Or alternatively, given a model that's in development, can I show the models that use it as an ALM source? Basically I want a screen shot that I can use as…
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?…

Help: Saved View with Production List (versions) not pulling through to Prod - ALM
We are creating a saved view in Dev that uses a Production List, and the view is not populating in Prod when we push through. This seems to be an issue that would be common, but I wasn't able to find a community solution. The saved view has our custom versions list in the columns, the issue is since our custom versions…
Ability to integrate with CI tools
While Anaplan is great as a simple development platform, it lacks Continuous Integration-related features as a full-fledged development platform. There are many excellent CI tools in the world, and they are very effective in improving development efficiency and maintaining quality. Reference:…
