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.
While the Model Map functionality already exists in Anaplan, it becomes difficult to navigate when working with large models. I would like to see enhanced support for full export capabilities of the model schema (DISCO). This would greatly streamline documentation efforts and save time when capturing model status across…
I'd like to request implementing a formal notification system for upcoming platform changes and updates. This would be incredibly valuable for the Anaplan community for several reasons: Real Impact Example:Recently (Sept 2025), an unannounced Cloudworks change restricted .csv000 file imports. This resulted in: Failed…
We recently noticed that users that have enabled passwordless authentication through Microsoft are no longer able to login to Anaplan via single sign on. After entering a ticket via Anaplan, it seems that this is a hardcoded platform parameter which specifies that authentication must occur through a password-based feature…
