Hi,   For security purposes of our company , and I guess for some rest customers/companies as well, through the API request Server Name should be hidden. Information of server type can be potentially used by attackers to accurately identify the specific version of the software in use   Kindly ask to hide Server Name from API responses.   Attaching screenshot from Postman API check.     ...

Being and Anaplan Modeler, I would like to have a notification box, appearing when you try to make a copy/copy & archive model of non-deployed model.   Request is based on bad experience we had in the team - when we moved the prod model to non-deployed status (for mistake), we made a copy&archive, and we didn't know that it cause a new revision tag. Thus we lost a synchronization (new tag appeared in target model).   To prevent this, notification box can appear as double checking of the action you perform.   Benefits: preventing copying in case new tag is not required (save from unexpected asynchronization of the models) ...

Being an Anaplan Admin, I would like to be able to copy-paste text values into User Selective Access columns.Currently, Anaplan only accepts either Selective Access List ID or copy-paste directly from Anaplan cells of the same format.   Benefit: it will save a lot of time during access review instead of running User Import. Moreover, in ALM model User Import has to be imported each time with updating of source file. ... View more

If in the system Selective Access is set to Numbered List, when you export User Access list, all items are shown as #NAME instead of display name.   Currently, on quarter basis we are preparing current user access lists to provide to responsible people. An it takes a lot of time to manually replace #NAMES with Display one, since otherwise the list is not understandable for people.   Being an Anaplan user, I would like to be able to select the type of name to export case of Selective Access set to numbered list (either Display Name or Real name).   Benefit: since we have a quarter based access review and have to provide a current view of accesses to business users, it will save a lot of time when need to replace #name with Display Names. ...

The issue is related to the ALM functionality.   Currently, if you set-up a Waterfall chart, based on production list, it can be transferred into production model incorrectly. That is because waterfall chart shows list items based on their "internal" code (from Anaplan words), meaning that if in prod some items will be with different "internal" code, ALM won't take it as a change and not all of the items will be displayed.   Benefit of the change: correct way of Waterfall charts managing with ALM functionality. ...

Being an Anaplan user, I would like to dynamically set list management access without admin license.   Similarly to WorkFlow and DCA, it would be great to have an ability to dynamically limit add/delete/copy actions on the list for the users, who have write access to it.   As per now, taking, for example, Workflow:   Imagine we Have simple hierarchy Customer->Activities.  Activities is and open for management list. People are allowed to create and manage activities list. Imagine we would like to freeze numbers for submission. Taking workflow, it will lock all inputs fields per activity, which is great. However, I can still create new activities. Moreover, I can DELETE existing. Or Create a copy of existing, and thus, change numbers. Exactly this part should be blocked.   As per now, taking, for example, DCA. We can limit input fields by it. Bu we still can delete (for that there is a workaround to perform deletion by tick-box, that can be limited). But copy still works. And it ignores DCA, meaning there is still a way how to change locked numbers in total.   Proposal: Dynamic List Write Access   Benefit: allow to save frozen picture of numbers, based on dynamically updated list, by blocking list items management.  ...

Being an Anaplan builder, I would like to be able to perform sorting with nested pivot (wich means pivot with several dimensions in rows).   Currently, sorting can be done on in case of one dimension represented in rows. However, I would be great to have an ability to do the same with several dimensions (nested pivot) in rows. Despite workarounds, it would be a pleasure to have a direct functionality in Anaplan.   Benefit of the enhancement: preparing of more detailed and useful in terms of pivot reports. ... View more

A detailed description of the enhancement that is being requested. We would like to request an enhancement that would allow to use LOOKUP and SUM with Formula summary method.   Currently Anaplan doesn’t allow to do so, although in many cases it is needed and doesn’t break the math.   If available, could you please provide a picture or an example of the enhancement when implemented?   For example here I use Last non-blank summary in Last Project column. I want Volume line item to take given Project each time on lowest level, but lookup for Last Project at Summaries: If Formula summary would be possible, Volume at ISC – ID 2009 would be 1000 as in the last line above. To provide more clarification, could you please explain how you hope the enhancement would assist in your business process(es)?   It would ease building of the modules, where business requires to take into account different reference at lower and higher levels, using complex criteria. ...

Being an Anaplan builder, I would like to pick  line items with same name, but from different modules into one Line Item Subset. The behavior of items in LI SS in that way will be like in numbered list.   Benefits: preparing reports, combined across big number of similar metric without creating and fake Line Item SS and performing mapping for it. ...

Being an Anaplan admin, I would to be able to upload User List into the model in Deployed Status following general approach of imports from files (with ability to upload .csv file).   Currently, the only way to do it is to check the import in the system as "Production Data", re-upload source file directly in production model in Import Setting and then run the import.   Instead, I would like to be able to populate import on the dashboard and upload the file every time I type on it (like with other imports from files) so that I wouldn't follow three steps instead of one.   Benefits: reduce number of steps done by admin to load User List files in the system. ...

Being an Anaplan Builder, I would like to be able to export from the modules Line Items Subset Items Codes, similarly to the properties of other general Lists.   Full Descriptions: when line item is added to Line Item Subset, it can be identified by the code, entered in Blue Print Mode. Currently, if this Line Item Subset will be used as a dimension, we cannot export it's code, like we can do for general lists (by adding labels in export set up menu). We would like Code property for Line Item Subsets to be included as a label to have ability to export it.   Benefit of the change: for places, where Line Item Subset is used for entry fields, build an appropriate template to perform import. ...

Proposal : Increase in more than 1 million times for Break-back line items   Benefits : perform large inputs in break-back for initially very small, but non-zero values, excluding the step of force zeroing values by each cell before break-back. ... View more

Reason of the change: currently, if wide table is published on the dashboard, behavior of manipulating it can lead to different inconvenient results, exactly:   1) Opening search toolbar can switch to the middle of the table 2) Same for filters, sorting 3) Last line can dissapear   Benefit: more user friendly WoW with wide tables on dashboards. ...

Being a Anaplan builder, I would like to extend TEXT() functionality to work similarly to excel function, exactly:   1) Follow different format conversions 2) Follow preset patterns, to exclude unexpected text from numbers results etc.   Example of wrong work to be prevented with new functionality:  Text(1504322.40)= 1504322.4 - ok Text(15751942)= 15751942 - ok Text(15751942.50)= 1.57519425E7 - wrong   With same functionality, as in Excel, it would be possible to use preset patterns to exclude such cases. Examples from original Excel TEXT() function description (taken from support.office.com) : Formula                                                 Description =TEXT(1234.567,"$#,##0.00") Currency with a thousands separator and 2 decimals, like $1,234.57. Note that Excel rounds the value to 2 decimal places. =TEXT(TODAY(),"MM/DD/YY") Today’s date in MM/DD/YY format, like 03/14/12 =TEXT(TODAY(),"DDDD") Today’s day of the week, like Monday =TEXT(NOW(),"H:MM AM/PM") Current time, like 1:29 PM =TEXT(0.285,"0.0%") Percentage, like 28.5% =TEXT(4.34 ,"# ?/?") Fraction, like 4 1/3 =TRIM(TEXT(0.34,"# ?/?")) Fraction, like 1/3. Note this uses the TRIM function to remove the leading space with a decimal value. =TEXT(12200000,"0.00E+00") Scientific notation, like 1.22E+07 =TEXT(1234567898,"[<=9999999]###-####;(###) ###-####") Special (Phone number), like (123) 456-7898 =TEXT(1234,"0000000") Add leading zeros (0), like 0001234 =TEXT(123456,"##0° 00' 00''") Custom - Latitude/Longitude Benefit of the change: flexible TEXT() function with ability to prevent unexpected results. ...

Being an Anaplan builder/user, I would like to be able use set on the view filters for export option "Tabular Single Column".   Currently, if you prepare a view with set filters, if you run "Tabular Single Column" export, Anaplan will ignore filters and include all items from all dimensions in the extract. It has two major disadvantages: 1) Insecurity, meaning that users will be able to extract what they shouldn't see in some cases (for example, filtered line items). 2) Without ability to put more then 3 dimensions in row and run "Current Page" export option (which allows to use filters from the view), it is impossible to run filtered "flat view" exports (when each dimension in row) for modules with more then 3 dimensions required .   Benefit of the change: ability to perform "flat view" exports with preset filters for more than 3 dimensions modules. ...

Currently in Anaplan different format values are located in different places of the cell. Thus, number format items are placed on the right, text and other - on the left. It makes the tables, containing lines of both types, hard for reading in case of wide columns.   Benefit: more user-friendly design for tables with wide columns. ... View more

Description:   Being an Anaplan Builder, I would like to be able to have a date format with Time in it (hh-mm-hh)   Some of our planning tasks are connected with work with exact timing (Date + Time). Currently, we have to upload this data as text and use RIGHT(),MID(),LEFT() functions to extract values.   If we have a customized Date format, it would be easier for managing such cases.   Benefit: Exclude performance-consuming text formulas and optimize work with such format of data. ...

Description:   Being an Anaplan user, I would like to avoid re-loading of Anaplan page if I occasionally click on "Anaplan" header on the top of the page.     Benefit/Impact: Removing of occasional re-load of the page with loosing all of set tabs/modules etc. will allow not to break business work with preparing working view again. ...

Description: Being an Anaplan Builder, I would like to be able to perform imports from subsidiary view with one dimension and from modules without dimensions.   Example of Enhancement:   Working with different models, it is sometimes required to perform and import from line item without dimensions or with only one, but being in subsidiary view. Examples of such actions are: populate True/False Boolean flag to enable/disable something in the model, capture somewhere date of the model, which is represented in one line item without dimension, etc.   Currently, it is possible to create an view (either subsidiary with one dimension or with module without dimension), in which you will see source line item to be transferred. Usual view of such is: View Example:     Source Line Item Name Data But if this view will be used in import, once you open Import Wizard Window, view will be represented as:   Source Line Item Name   There is a workaround to create a dummy list with one item. But that is not the right way of managing the import sources since anyway in the original view Anaplan Shows the data.   Benefit / Impact: Performing imports without additional population of dummy dimensions.   ...
