Allow Temporary Cubes to be used in If Then Else action
Quite often specific cubes are created to hold the results of a logical test that can be performed through dataflow. This cube would then be used in an If The Else procedure action to determine the actions to run based on the outcome of the test. Currently, the If Then Else action cannot use temporary cubes saved in the…

Permissions to create presentations

Allow developer to 'size' the pie, or take into consideration if Labels are on when setting size.
It would be good if the developer could control the pie size in the web like you could in the client, or if the size of the pie took into consideration if 'labels/outside' is set. Why? Because in the new web pie chart object labels don't necessarily show/appear as the sizing is incorrect..and it is impossible to make them…

Multiple Down/Sub Total Rows in a single Data View
Dear Community, I would like to propose the addition of multiple sub/down total rows in a single data view. It would allow for not only a sum row at the bottom of each data set but also an Average row or other analytical calculations that summarize the data. This would give users a more detailed and versatile summary of…

Formulae and Formulae Tracking / Lineage
Hi there, Increasingly our customers and prospects are comparing some specific functionality that exists in Anaplan especially, when it comes to formulae in Board. There are TWO key areas: When using Rules (or Nexel), the references are not written in natural language. e.g. if you are writing a rule that takes Sales and…

Extension of dynamic selection
At the moment, the dynamic selection is based on one cube. So an element of an entity is selected if there is a value for this element in the cube and vice versa. In my opinion this functionality could be improved by: the user is able to create the condition (referring to one cube) himself, for example: if(x>3,1,0) the…

"Page By" Excel extracts
Useful to create separate tabs within Excel file for multiple "page by" options, but if we also need a consolidated view of report on a separate tab, this needs to be done as an independent task. Would it not make sense to have a tickbox to "include total/consolidated view" as a tab in same task?

Possiblility to hid an item in an entity
Dear Community The users of Board are asking if it’s possible to hid a item in a entity. Since it’s not possible to delete a item it would have been nice if we could hid them for the users.

ALM - Merge Branch
At present, developers can only develop together on one MasterDB. This can lead to problems in large projects with many developers. Example: Developer 1 starts a procedure to calculate values in a cube. Developer 2 has to empty an entity that is contained in the above-mentioned cube. For example, because the MaxItem number…

SVG-Icons for Entities
I suggest the possibility to add own SVG icons to entities. This makes it possible to display them instead of or in addition to code/description in selectors, diagrams and dataviews. This option is particularly interesting for grouping entities, workflow entities or other static entities. It is important that these can be…

Impact Analysis - Data Lifecycle

A first starting point is the impact…

Use Cube groups for Cube Visibility settings
Hi, Cube visibility is a great feature that we are starting to implement with customers. However, the setup of every single cube is a very time-consuming and maintenance-heavy operation especially in larger databases with hundreds of cubes. One tool that would greatly help in that area would be the possibility to set up…

Paste image in support ticket
Hello, Currently, the support ticket does not allow to paste an image directly in the form. We have to copy the image to Paint (or other tools) and save the file and then upload it to the ticket. It would be quite efficient if we can just paste the screenshots directly instead of attachment. Most of the times we have to…

Copy/Paste on Layout for Data Entry
Data Entry: There is no possibility to do the copy/paste function on multi selection of rows and columns: the only results of this activity is the paste only in the first selected rows.

Simultaneously of Sheet Seletion and Workbook Selection
Board Add-in Excel: in an excel file with multiple sheets it is not possible to set filters in workbook selection (e.g: year, scenario) valid for all sheets and filters on sheet selection (e.g: accounts) valid specifically for a single sheet. If both are used, only the sheet selection is considered in the file. It would be…

SubHub : Sync to data model : add option to trigger a procedure
The idea is to be able to trigger a procedure per data model once the synchronisation of the entities and relationship are done. Often you need to do some calculation based on user Role or metadata to account for the changes, give him access to workflow he previously didn't have to. And at the moment you have to rely on…

Extract and Reload Bookmarks by Users, in order to keep them after clearing and reloading Entities
I have this requirement on Bookmarks from a big account. They are happy to use bookmarks since it is a big upgrade in their daily work compared their previous solution. The big problem here is that they need to clear and reload their MD's because it's a FMCG companies so their MD's have a high rotation. When they do that…

PRESENTATIONS FORMAT
Hello All in presentations, it would be great to be able to reformat the columns. To date, the columns retain the format of the original report, which severely limits the interest of the presentations. It would also be very useful to have the function available to flatten the data. Thanks for your attention

Procedure Execution Flow - Action Status
Problem to solve When modelling, business logics are encapsulated in separate procedures. This has the advantage that they can be called from anywhere without creating redundant logic. With the "call procedure" step, a procedure can call one or more child procedures. There is currently no simple way to return a functional…
