It would be great to have Anaplan built in functionality to tell a user when an action or process was last ran. This would be extremely helpful in identifing forecast locking, data loads, etc.
Use Case : Data Hub
I am currently building a Data Hub to be used by other builders downstream. Ideally i would have a date flag against hierarchies to show when last updated so the builders know if now safe to load into their models. To overcome the limitation for now the source system was able to provide an extract date as an additional column to the child/parent file. I am using this as a property on the Cost Centre List to mark when last loaded. Clearly the same date will be on all cost centres. A useful hack for now.
Thanks

@DavidSmith that's great news!
@dafinkapancheva I see this when I go to settings-->actions. I haven't played around with this yet, but is there a way to get this to populate in a module? End users may want to see this. I know you could do an export --> import via an integration tool. How about a formula?
@KBeltz ,
I tested this new feature this morning and had exactly the same thought. It feels that what's been delivered is more of an MVP so I submitted this idea, which is what I think you are asking for :

I added another request to it as I feel the "Last executed by" information would be helpful as well.
[Current Issue] The chart below shows the result when Chart → Axis → Label Format = Manual is applied to the vertical axis (see Note 1). In this case, the amounts on the chart’s vertical axis are not displayed with comma separators, which makes them difficult for clients to read and confirm. Amounts displayed on the chart…
[Current Issue] Currently, when bubbles overlap in a bubble chart, the label name of one of the overlapping bubbles is not displayed. For example, as shown below, the blue bubble and the light blue bubble overlap. The label name for the blue bubble is Name A, and the label name for the light blue bubble is Name B. At…
I should not be able to delete any line item that is part of a saved view or used in an action within connected models. With the growing number of interconnected models and imports, any deletion, movement, or renaming of line items can break imports and disrupt connections between models. This safeguard is essential as a…
