Calculation Functions

For the purpose of calculating lease contracts in IFRS 16 it's sometimes needed to have wide time ranges in the model. Currently, the amount of future years is limited up to 50 years and past years up to 20 years (link). This means you have a maximum time range of 70 years. We experience that some lease contracts extend 70…

Hi, I have 3 modules, all sharing the same dimensions (period, transaction# and employee list). The first 2 modules contains line item "metric" both with output type list (same list), I need to see all the data in all line items of module 1 and module 2 - it should be consolidated in module 3. In module 3, it has the same…

A pre-emptive alert for Anaplan function constraints based on the total number of cells to be processed would be useful to detect issues early in the ALM data transfer process avoiding the synchronization unproductive time until the error or warning message regarding the same kind of effect pops up.

I would like to submit an enhancement request for the LAG function to be used between time ranges that are not the same but have valid overlap. The constraint that disallows the use of LAG between any line items that do not have the same time range gives the function minimal utility. I understand disallowing instances…

I spend the last 2 days trying to dynamically linked a specific date (specified by a user) I created a module to have visible the versions, country and initiatives (as my lists) and of course the line cost items and calculate the monthly charge per cost line item per costing type based on the elapse time between start and…

It would be really helpful to me when building complex formulas if I could build it up in pieces without creating lots of line items to do so. Ideally I could build it in pieces without getting plagued with "wrong data type" errors. I'd like the option to let the system adjust the datatype for me instead of just rejecting…

Got the idea I'm trying from here: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Anaplan-Discussions/Lookup-on-Parent-elements/m-p/1478#M2397. But, we needed to change it up a bit as I need it to be user specific but it's not working. I created a very simplified version of what we are trying to do on a larger scale. I started with a…

Here is my problem, I have two different modules without timescale or dimension. One module has quantity and dates. Second module has start date and end date and I would like to sumif within the range of the start and end dates. Please guide me if there is a way to solve this.

Hi, I'm trying to load master data in the system but in the files which I trying to load have erroneous records like one child has multiple parents. So is there any work around in which I can identify those combinations in a staging module for error check in anaplan.

This seems to be a reoccurring topic. I also am only returning an answer of 0. My equation is Region Percent * Geo Goal Set.Projected Goal[LOOKUP: Parent]. I have also ensured my Forecast version is current as well. 

I have a master warehouse budget model which has several modules but let's consider the following modules for example: Shipments, Freight Charges, Headcount, Inventory etc. All are inter-linked by formulas and the setup is complete.

Contact centres regularly use expensive workforce management solutions that are inflexible and difficult to work with. These solutions focus on managing call handler schedules (ie what they're doing at each point in the day) against customer fulfilment (how quickly they're getting to support that customer). These solutions…

Hi @DavidSmith , I had one more query . For instance, A module consists of 6 line items, Is it possible to importing the data into module for each line item separately( as of new set of data into each line item), If possible then importing of data is of same way of uploading.

Hi All, how to get the values form one module to another module in list items using subtracting function. Please find the attached Screenshots list items formula given bellow: Base-Base Base- Simulation 1 Base-Simulation 2 we have using bellow formula IF ITEM(Snapshot Versions) = Snapshot Versions.Base THEN 'TW28: What If…

Hi, How to select the yearly average value of a line item from a module that is dimensioned by time (monthly), for the current year, in another module that is not dimensioned by time? Please note, I wish to make the formula dynamic and not use static values like TIME.FY19 I have a "Shipments" module that is having monthly…

If I am using dynamic cell access to some line items by using write access drivers and read access drivers then quaterly data not displaying, If I am removing it , then it is like usually displaying normally quaterly data. Can anyone explain what is the reason behind it. 

The CUMULATE function when used against a list, currently accumulates in the original list order even when the list has been reordered. Anapedia states this is how the function is meant to work, but I would like it to take into account if the list has been reordered, and cumulate in the new order. Description of the…

Hi, I'm working on the UX section of the introduction to modeling, and I cannot get the headcount module to populate with data when it's on the dashboard. Interestingly, there's data in the module itself and when I publish other modules to the dashboard they also show data. What could I be doing wrong? Thanks for your help…

I have a module that needs to tell me whether a customer is present in more than one country in each region. For example, Customer A is only present in United States under AM region. This means that it is not an inter-region customer in AM. But in EU region, it is present in United Kingdom and Italy, so it is an…
