UX Grid Filters: After initial filter is applied, how do I get subsequent filters to reduce options?
I am working with a grid with a large amount of data. After an initial filter is selected and the end user moves to further filter the data with a second filter, all available options are still shown.

Scheduled export of Reports and Pages from Anaplan
Can future development of Anaplan include the capability to schedule delivery of Pages and reports to individuals via email?

How could I see the new management reporting option when I click the "Create a page" button in UX?
This question has been asked many times by clients and internal Anaplan users. So the prerequisite is to ensure that the user account in question has the Page Builder role. If it doesn't, this is how we can ensure the Page Builder role is assigned:…

Collapse / Expand Hierarchy Functionality in Modules and UX Grids
In current standard grid modules and UX Grids you can't Collapse & Expand hierarchies of Lists/Line Items/Sublist like you can do in Excel (see below). Considering that sometimes hierarchies can be huge or you want to Collapse one part but Expand another - it would be good to have such functionality
