In Anaplan XL you can convert an existing grid report to a formula report.

To do this, right-click the grid, then select Anaplan XL > Convert to > Formula. Then select Yes to confirm that you want to convert the grid to a formula report.

If you are converting a grid report that contains slicers, a message that links to any slicers in the report will be removed is displayed. You can manually recreate these links.

To recreate links to slicers manually, follow these steps:

  1. Right-click the slicer and choose Edit slicer.
  2. On the settings tab, select Update range with selection and point to the cell location where the slicer choice is located.
  3. Select Caption from the dropdown.
  4. Edit your formula statement to point to this cell location. Right-click a cell in the formula report and edit the XL3Lookup statement to make sure the cell location which holds the slicer choice is correct.
