Know which view is in use on dashboard
When reviewing a dashboard, we do not know which view among the 10's of views of the module is used for that dashboard element. Only way is to review each view, and then make the changes. Ability to find which view is being used would help navigate better.

Mobile Emulator (Android or iOS) for testing and presentation
Hello, I am struggling to find a good mobile emulator (android or iOS) paying or free that I can use for testing the apps layout on a mobile device and, mostly, for client presentations.

Include a column for specific filter selection?
We have a new report request and they would like to include a single column when only one of the filters are selected. So if the drop down had 5 choices, the one of these five that we want, includes an additional column that is not displayed when any of the other 4 selections are chosen. I am sure there is a way to…
Rearrange context dropdown in NUX
Hi guys, Does anyone know if rearranging the order of the context dropdowns is possible in NUX. It appeared that they are in alphabetical order of the lists they represent, but it might be a coincidence. Anyway, changing the names of the lists, did not yield any result.

Name clashes in Anaplan
When assigning actions, dashboards, modules etc with names there is often a need to use the same name. Model builders have been getting around this issue by using spaces creatively in between words (the spaces don't show in the name) to work around the issue. However, i think it would be much easier if Anaplan could,…

Old UX - Update parent selection based on child selection
Been searching the forum but cannot find a good answer to this challenge. In the old UX, we have dashboards with e.g. two modules where one applies Level 2 (e.g. department) of a hierarchy as a dimension whereas the other applies Level 3 (e.g. employee) of the same hierarchy as a dimension. What we want to achieve is that…
Extend the KPI cards Conditional Formatting on Filter driven KPIs
In New UX KPIs can be created in two ways: Line item and View Line item: You can do the conditional formatting on KPI cards as it displays all the line items that are available in your default module.

Horizontal scrollbar gets stuck in New UX
When scrolling left to right in a New UX worksheet page, sometimes the scroll bar gets locked to my mouse movement as if the mouse is still clicked down on the scroll bar, even when it isn't. So, when I'm done scrolling and release the mouse button and move the mouse around, the table still scrolls left and right in…
New Filter - From Column not Dimension

Line Item Context Selectors to List of line items on a page
When two or more cards a published to a UX page and the line items are placed as context selectors it is not possible to filter or manually limit the selection of these line items without impacting the other cards. This seems to come from the fact that when entering the settings for line items in the page design screen you…
New UX Idea - General Selector list items order change
While setting up a P&L report I found out that the order of the elements in a selector is default and cannot be changed. It goes from the upper elements of the list down to the lowest. (See required order below) Even if the order in the list is presented as "grouping after" it does not help. (if you pivot module that P&L…

New UX: page/context selectors on cards that synchronise with the elements on the page
It would be useful to be able to publish the page/context selectors as a separate card in the New UX boards so you can decide where on the page you want it to be located instead of being either at the top-right corner or on each of the cards/board elements. This request would pose additional flexibility as at the moment if…
Be able to add a specific Page Selector on the top of the Page without publishing a module
In the old UX, we can publish a Page Selector (List > Grid View > View > Publish List as Page Selector on Dashboard) even if we don't have a module at this dimension on the dashboard. For exemple, to publish a Page Selector "P1 COUNTRY" to dynamically filter a module at "P2 STORE" level (child of "P1 COUNTRY") thanks to…

However, this functionality doesn't work for the grids that are created in the Additional Insight section on worksheets. I would like the summary of selected cells to be working not only for the primary grid, but also…
Global Conditional Formatting for Time
Instead of formatting line items in each module with a color for past periods, and current or future periods. I believe there should be a global setting allowing users to have all past periods shaded gray and current/future periods as another color. It would be nice to be able to select these colors rather than a standard…

When my line items reference list items for a drop down it moves the results over the the left. There is no override for to make list items right aligned or right justified. Please provide a right align, center, and left align override within modules.
New UX: Arranging content selectors
It would be great to be able to rearrange the content selectors (change the sequence) in the new UX. In classic dashboard, we can changed the views in pivoting or establish a list as page selector. But we are not able to do so in new UX. I am curious how the content selectors are arranged.
