@Miran - could we please merge this request with the idea highlighted above? https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Add-module-column-to-master-line-item-view/idc-p/57681#M4408

CallumW

Great idea @dgregs - also has been raised here; https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Show-referenced-by-also-for-saved-views/idi-p/45998 @Miran can we please merge ideas? Hoping we can see this idea implemented soon!

CallumW

Good idea @shipshap6 and something that is being considered for the roadmap here; https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Ability-to-delete-users-from-a-workspace-using-the-API/idi-p/34910 @Miran - could we please merge these requests? I hope we can raise the profile of this idea, the current process is very painful.

Hey @Nethra - I am struggling to see the attachment (it won't open), can you reupload the message? Best, Callum

CallumW

Love this idea! @Nicolas Cadier

CallumW

Hopefully a simple change to make and would make a lot of customers very happy!

CallumW

Great idea, @Michelle Sutherland ! Would definitely improve the consistency and feel of NUX pages.

CallumW

@nick_barker - great idea Nick! I think the manage models area needs more features to include more metadata about the models and this is a great example of that!

CallumW

I believe a number of these ideas have been included in the suggestions below; https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Add-Syntax-Highlighting/idi-p/35962 https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Add-a-simple-formula-builder-to-the-platform/idi-p/54782 If you haven't voted for these yet, please do!

@Stan - thanks for the update! I have noticed now that if you search from the Idea Exchange, it doesn't bring through the value you searched (might have worked like this before and not noticed), but appreciate this might already be on your radar with the auto filter on idea discussed earlier.

CallumW

@DavidEdwards - agree this would be a great improvement, very frustrating to lose all audit history!

CallumW

I would add to check the release notes and known issues pages before updating (perhaps release notes can be featured on the downloads page for easier referencing). I recently came across something that meant I had to completely reinstall the software, which also caused some further issues, I would have probably not updated that week due to amount of work I had to do! Thanks to @Magali_Pelissier for coming to my aid on the forum!

@usman.zia - Love the idea of project Storm!

CallumW

Great idea @Sathya - would be nice to have CTRL + click functionality too!

CallumW

@Stan - great, thanks for the update!

CallumW

@Miranit looks as though this has already been raised here; https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Import-add-quot-Ignore-All-Unmapped-quot-option-with-manual/idi-p/45640 Can we please merge? Thanks!

CallumW

Couldn't agree more @PeteC - great idea!

CallumW

Yes please! Also provide some info to track if that saved view is being referenced by any dashboards!

A couple of ideas to improve the search functionality; Automatically enable the "idea" filter when using the search function on the Idea Exchange page Currently, if I search the page for a phrase/idea to see if it has been raised, I am taken to a page that returns relevant results from across the entire community. It should only be searching for ideas raised, and I believe this behaviour is how the website used to function prior to the updated. Fix the page selector (i.e. moving to page 2) when a filter has been applied Having been taken to a search page from the Idea exchange, if I apply a filter on Ideas and there is more than 1 page of results, I am unable to use the page selectors at the bottom of the page to access the results - Please fix! Best, Callum

Have given this a try and can confirm this works on Firefox too. Thanks @usman.zia !

Hi all, I have recently been facing a lot of 504 Gateway Time-out messages when trying to load Anaplan models. I have narrowed it down to trying to open an Anaplan model and then switching tab on Firefox, so that the tab that is loading the model is not active. I have tested on other browsers and they do not seem to experience the issue (Edge/Chrome), i.e. will load the model in the background whilst on a different tab. Just wondered if anyone else had experienced the issue? Is this a known issue and can anything be done about it? Best, Callum

CallumW

It would certainly be useful to have a unqiue identifer for line items that wasn't it's own name. Having a "display name property" for each line item would allow us to duplicate names for line items which would be useful.

CallumW

Thanks @Magali_Pelissier !

CallumW

I see, it seems I am not getting that prompt unfortunately. Just wanted to check on the community before I contacted support - thanks for the help @Misbah ! Best, Callum

CallumW

Hi @Misbah When I click on new I am prompted with the following screen; Should it appear before this? Best, Callum

Hi all, I understand the ability to create a read/write connection with Anaplan was reintroduced in v3.3 of the Excel add-in. Where does this feature reside? I am using v3.3.44.0 and below is a screenshot of my toolbar; I have full access and workspace admin permissions, I also have write access enabled on the version and module I am trying to write into. Best, Callum

CallumW

@andrewtye- precisely! I've noticed kudos buttons dotted around in weird areas sometimes, but this one looked particularly odd!

CallumW

Thanks @Miran !

CallumW

Excellent article, @kavinkumar ! It's always a good idea to read theThe Planual to get up to date with the current best practices (you have mentioned a lot here) In this way, a model builder can scope a development roadmap and ultimately improve the user experience of their model.

CallumW

Really great idea @helennie , would love to see this implemented!
