New UX Idea - Dafault source model listed in more than one model used as a source for a page
This will be helpful to choose a default out of two or more sources used in a created page. Currently users see the first listed source when they open a page for the first time. And can be confused of the wrong data they see on the screen. The order in the settings of a page below does not affect on how the models will be…

Please refer the picture below. It would be nice to have the following features to make the dashboard look professional: Ability to leave no gaps between two grids Ability to color background of titles. I have done a workaround to able to color the headers in the image below Ability to show/hide…
"Restore Page" button in the New UX
Having a "Restore Page" button in the New UX, like the "Restore App" button that saves Apps up to 30 days. Emailing support@anaplan.com every time you accidentally delete a Page is not very convenient. In other words, too much damage could be done to an App (by deleting a Page) with 2 clicks.
Use KPI Cards to Hyperlink between Apps
Use KPI Cards to Hyperlink between Apps Provide the ability to enter a custom URL in a KPI Card that allows users to click on a KPI card and navigate to a separate Dashboard within a separate App or external website. Currently KPI cards can only link to Dashboards within the same App.…
Allow model builders to differentiate models by changing the color of the "Anaplan" blue header bar
We have many different models our team of builders uses, all of which have a slightly different name, but sometimes that's not exactly obvious if one is working in the Revision 1 model, or the Revision 2 model, Staging, or Production etc. I would like the ability to alter the color of the blue anaplan header bar so that I…
Enable multiple source models for an app
Hello Community Members, We are trying to move from a multi-app set-up (Dev, Test, Prod) for our UX apps to a single app enable with multiple source models. However, in trying to do that I realized that there's no way I can change this setting at an app level; now I end up needing to make that change in ~ 6*20 pages. Since…

Apps > Report: Add Variance between rows
The new feature in Apps > Report to add variance between columns (as shows in the screenshot) is fantastic. It would be very useful to have the same feature to calculate variances between rows, but this is currently unavailable. It would be greatly appreciated if this feature could please be added as soon as possible so we…
Enable Keyboard shortcuts in NUX
Currently, the quick search (Ctrl + Shift + S) to look for an item in a grid from the old UX is not working in the new UX. Would be great to have that working again, as our clients are using that a lot.
Freeze Panes
Will it ever be possible to freeze panes like excel?
NUX Ability to Re-Size Drop Down Lists in Grids
Is there an ability to allow a user to resize a drop down list in grids? Currently it looks like it defaults to the size of the column, and when selecting a list item within a hierarchy, often the view of the item is obstructed and you have to scroll to see the item. We did notice that you can resize the column right…

Upload Image for NUX
Anaplan don't allow to upload images but there is the possibility to show them only with the use of links. This can indeed streamline the App but it can generate some problems where some clients have restrict web access in regards to websites that are visitable. It would be great to have the chance to upload image and -why…

I am in the process of creating the 3 different grids in the exceptions review dashboard. I added another grid with a link to the INV01 Inventory module and just included the stock exceptions line item. is this a correct approach? i was going to do something similar with the other grid as well. Lastly, the screenshot…
Add the feature to hide "Copy Down" and "Copy Across" buttons
The buttons "Copy Down" and "Copy Across" are too dangerous for the users. A popup message, where the user can understand what it is going to happen and then confirm the copy, could be helpful. As it is, there is the risk to accidentally override a lot of data with just one click, especially in those cards where there are…

Line Item Subset: include non-numbered members, boolean only for dynamic filtering
Using line item subsets to filter line items in and out of a view is very helpful in giving users the ability to change their view in a single click; however developers are limited to Number-formatted line items. Giving the ability to add non-numerical items to a LISS and limiting the format of a line item dimensionalized…
Link to a page of another app
Hello, we have built several apps and it is becoming essential to facilitate the user experience by allowing to create links to a page of another app. For example, we could have a new selector "choose an app", then we would choose the target page as currently.
Adjustable page size in management reporting
Not sure how others feel about the 4:3 ratio in the new reporting page, but I would consider it pretty outdated for projectors and standard laptop / desktop screens. To my knowledge, only iPads / tablets still use the 4:3 ratio. I would appreciate if it can be adjusted to at least 16:9, but also standard paper sizes like…
Current page option in the context area for a context selector filter
I would like to apply a filter to a context selector to use a filter dimensioned by what is also another context selector and wanting the filter to update with what is chosen from that other context selector. For example: I have a list as a context selector and time, which I only want to show the items chosen in the list…
