Thanks @Manuela_Apostol , this would be a wonderful addition to the existing functionalities of the add-in. I can see some of our clients would love having the option to pull the code/name depending on the needs @MagaliP

I totally agree that this would enhance the page user friendliness by keeping all selections/filters together. It would be a great addition to the boards as well, posing similar benefits.

Thanks for sharing @AlejandroGomez, nice way of embedding the model documentation/instructions into the model!

I discovered recently that the order of the dimensions in the Applies To defines the order of the dimensions for the drill down too, so you could potentially change it to the most common asked order when drilling down. Note this depends on the Summary method as well, but for line items with "Sum" summary method then it works in a reversed order (i.e. the last dimension in the applies to will appear first in the drill down, and so on). Anyway it's not so dynamic so giving the option to the user to choose which one to drill down on first would be wonderful!

This would be a great addition, saving space for extra line items that are currently needed to get around this issue.

It would be useful to be able to publish the page/context selectors as a separate card in the New UX boards so you can decide where on the page you want it to be located instead of being either at the top-right corner or on each of the cards/board elements. This request would pose additional flexibility as at the moment if you have the dimension selectors on one of the elements of the page it does not synchronise to the other elements unless you click on the items you want to sync.

We have the option to change the users access in the new UX based on their role but at the moment this is done for each board/worksheet independently. It would be great to have the option to change the userss access for an entire app at once and this would apply to all the boards/worksheets within it. This would benefit changing the access in a faster way which can speed up other processes. For example, when you copy a DEV App to make it your new PROD App, you potentially want to check that everything works as expected before letting the end-users work with it. Having multiple boards/worksheets within an app and needing to restrict users access for each of them independently makes it a longer process.

Indeed it would be really useful to have the Copy branch functionality available in the NUX. It would be even better if we could let the user input the Code for the new member of the list too!

Noemi.andres · ‎04-07-2020

This would be a great addition to the export capabilities. Additionally to having the option to export the LIS field as the name or code this will enable leaving it blank too as we can do with normal lists at the moment.

Hi @Sravan_Kumar I think we may need some more details to make sure we can help you with this question. If you need the children to do the calculation but just want to show the parent values on a dashboard you could right click on the hierarchy within your module and click on "Select Levels to show" to hide the leaf level item. If you are trying to pull these values into a different module could you share the dimensionality of the target module so we can best advise what the best approach is? Regards, Noemi

Noemi.andres · ‎03-31-2020

Thank you @sprender, it's really useful to know when the targeted release is!

It is already possible to drill down in the New UX! This is a great improvement many people was waiting for. However, it is currently not possible to drill down further down after the first level of drill down which would add much more value. Users usually find that they need to drill down a few times until they get what they were looking for. This functionality may be on the roadmap (or even under development already!) but haven't seen anything on the releases calendar yet.

Hi @mikeng I agree with @Misbah 's solution if you indeed just want one unique "recruitment" member for your chart. It may be worth mentioning that if you use the new UX to display your chart, then Anaplan does not display the automatically generated ID number. However it will show the "recruitment" with the same name but in two different lines. See an example attached. Hope this helps! Noemi

@alexpavel this is a great idea! It would be useful as this situation happens often and having an extra level of the composite hierarchy is not always the most efficient/best-looking solution. As you say there are some current functionalities that would need to be revisited as basically this change would mean mixing properties from ragged hierarchies and composite hierarchies. The example you've put for retrieving the PARENT would clearly be a big debate. For me, the ideal situation would be to have the option of telling Anaplan which PARENT you are referring to, so by using an extension of the PARENT function to determine if it's the ancestor parent or the next levels' parent. The idea of making it fixed to one of them only does not seem dynamic enough. Another functionality which would need to change is the selecting the levels to show option. However, if Anaplan treats the extra children as the top level item (so as an extra "level" within the lowest level of the composite hierarchy) then this would work fine as it would allow you to choose which level to show from the lowest level of the hierarchy too.

Noemi.andres · ‎01-17-2020

I think this is a great idea, glad to see it is on the Roadmap! It would be great if we also had the functionality to choose the format of the data labels shown in the chart. For example, if it's a value shown in thousands or millions, the number of decimals, etc.

It would be useful to be able to search for an app within the Apps view in the same way we have the option to search for models within the models view. At the moment if the list of Apps is large you need to scroll until finding the right one (or use Ctrl+F and search it with the in-browser searching options).

In this forum you can find some interesting facts about which one of the functions (PREVIOUS, OFFSET, LAG) is better to use in terms of performance. Hope you find it useful! https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Anaplan-Platform-Discussions/Performance-Comparison-OFFSET-LAG-PREVIOUS-LOOKUP/m-p/51140#M7603

Noemi.andres · ‎01-16-2020

Hi @DingZ Assuming your module in Anaplan has Years as the Time dimension and your columns headers as line items, then the formula would work if you use functions such as PREVIOUS(), OFFSET(), POST() to refer to the previous time periods and retrieve these values into the designed period I would personally build it as: PREVIOUS(Effective Rates)*(1+Inflation Rate) Hope this helps!

Noemi.andres · ‎01-15-2020

Hi @tejaswini Alternatively, you could use an image for the title of the dashboards, which then allows you to use different colours for the background colour (within the image) of the titles in each dashboard. See here how to add images to dashboards: https://help.anaplan.com/anapedia/Content/Dashboards_and_Visualization/Build%20Dashboards/Add_Images_Dashboards.htm?_ga=2.62340332.1516836416.1578992089-822864612.1576492379 Anyway, if in doubt the user just needs to read the name of the tab they've got opened at the top. Hope this helps!

Noemi.andres · ‎01-13-2020

Hello @tejaswini If by dashboard colour you mean the background color of the page - no, this isn't possible at the moment. In the New UX there are more options regarding colours formatting but this is not one of them. Please let me know if you meant something different!

Noemi.andres · ‎12-10-2019

Have you already considered storing the data in a flat module (dimensioned by a flat list that would be automatically updated when a user runs the submission)? Then, you would need to create some filters/report on top of the stored data to allow them seeing the scope of the data they would like to analyse out of all the submitted data (e.g. data submitted at a specific point in time, or for a specific member of the hierarchy, etc). I usually find that this way of storing data is highly efficient as it would not be stored in a multidimensioned module. Of course it means that you would need to understand what will be done with the submitted data to be able to show it in a nice way.

Noemi.andres · ‎11-26-2019

Update: this functionality is available in the new UX.

Noemi.andres · ‎11-22-2019

It would be good to get the ability to filter dynamically the levels of a time scale used in a chart. At the moment if you show both the months and the years in a saved view that you then use to create a chart, Anaplan automatically ignores the aggregated levels of the timescale (e.g. Years) and just uses the leaf level time for the chart representation (e.g. Months). It would be really useful (both for model builders and end-users) to be able to have a dynamic Chart created from a saved view where a filter to hide/show either the months or years is applied. Then, the chart should be updated to show the months/years timescale accordingly when refreshing the dashboard (never both at the same time but still being able to switch between them for the same chart). Of course a workaround is to use a dummy time list and apply the filters to the saved view but it would save time/space if it could be done with the real time of the model.

Noemi.andres · ‎09-06-2019

Description: As a model builder I want to have the possibility of not displaying zero values in charts, so that the display is not impacted by the fact that there may not be any values (not that the real value is zero). It would still be great to keep the option of showing the zero values when desired, as in some cases it will be real data and hence relevant to display it in the chart. Example of Enhancement: I’ll know this is successful when I can determine if I want to show the zero values in a chart or just show a gap in the trend line. Benefit / Impact: At the moment there is no way to avoid showing the zero values in trend charts, so it raises questions from end-users. This functionality will allow end-users to understand charts easily in Anaplan.

Noemi.andres · ‎08-05-2019

Hi @jcannon , This option would be useful but at the moment it is not possible in the new UX. You can vote this idea here: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Create-a-PDF-PPT-Template-in-New-UX-to-allow-customers-to-create/idi-p/41029

The Custom View functionality saves so much time and avoids creating extra saved views in the model, it's great! I'm trying to apply conditional formatting to my custom view (saved the formatting I want in the default module view) but it does not seem to be linked... So is there a different way of applying conditional formatting to a custom view?

Noemi.andres · ‎01-14-2019

As a model builder, it would be really useful the option to use filters in the properties of a list, as well as having the option of drill down in lists.
