Hi @Ana22 ,

At the moment there is no equivalent in Anaplan with the NOW() function as in Excel.

What you can do, however, is to set up a daily import via Anaplan Connect to have a daily update.

I have seen an idea posted on the community. I also think it will be very useful, but so far there is only the workaround with Anaplan Connect (or manual daily entry).

This is the thread, but it needs community support: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Current-Date-and-Time/idi-p/46550

Kind regards,
Manuela
