Resources every Anaplanner should be familiar with

[filip.sypniewski]

Hi All,

I recently thought about gathering the most important articles & resources that every Anaplanner should be familiar with. I was actually preparing it for myself, but decided to give it a go and share with everyone since it could be useful! Of course, all these materials are available at Anaplan Resources, but I wanted to gather some of the most important in one place. Within these resources, many more detailed articles can be found.

If I could only pick one link it would be this one:

https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Start-Your-Anaplan-Journey/tkb-p/StartAnaplan

Created by @KayneSchwarz , @connie.ng , and @trisha.luu 

I think the modeler path should have the Planual by @DavidSmith broken out but the best practices link takes you there.

Thanks! Didn't have Connected Planning bookmarked. Rest all were already bookmarked and guess what I had this one bookmarked twice - Intentionally:) One of the best articles from Anaplan by @rob_marshall

@filip.sypniewski I wholeheartedly agree with @Misbah 

@rob_marshall article is legendary! It should be a required read for anyone that has responsibility for importing data.
