These are great workarounds indeed. @wquan1 , please feel free to post your suggestion for enhanced filtering functionality on the Idea Exchange ... View more

Good suggestion. If you use the Excel add-in to send your data into Anaplan, the number of decimals displayed in Excel does not matter so that would be a simple workaround if you have to repeat this process regularly ... View more

Hi and thank you for your interest in the Excel add-in.    You should expect the Excel Add-in to have the same impact on platform performance as a model view when you read or export it. So, if the view is designed efficiently (and the number of cells you are reading or writing is low), the impact on model performance will be low.   I would be happy to hear thoughts from users on this topic as well ...

"Accept as solution" can only be done by the author of the topic, in this case @sweemaels, so you would not see the button. FYI it looks like the below ... View more

I can confirm connection to saved views cannot be pivoted or filtered, contrary to connection to modules. This is also valid in v3.3 released last week. If you are facing other issues, please raise a Support ticket and we will investigate. If this answers your question, please accept this message as solution. Thank you very much. ... View more

This is currently under investigation @Miran . Customers using proxies are advised to install the newly released v3.3 and contact Anaplan Support. please @damianshameer2 and @Fwolf , could you please raise a support ticket so we can investigate? Thank you very much ... View more

Hi all,   An update about the Google Sheets add-on. We are currently on early access, so the documentation is not published on Anapedia but on a closed forum group. Some people have requested access to the group recently and been confused that I had to reject their access.   For legal reasons, products in early access are in a closed group and access is given upon approval. If your company is not part of the early access programme, your request to join the group will have to be rejected.   I understand you would like to access the documentation and this is why we are currently reviewing the way early access products are presented in the Community so that the information is shared publicly even to customers who are not part of the programme. I hope this initiative gets completed in the next few months.   Thank you for your understanding. Magali ... View more
