New Read-Only Connection to a module

Create a new read-only connection between Excel and an Anaplan module. 

Import Anaplan data into Excel where you can perform your data analysis. A read-only connection protects Anaplan data from being overwritten by any data changes you make in Excel. 

You must be signed into the Add-in.

Before you begin, select a starting cell in the Excel worksheet to import your Anaplan data.

4. Click Next.
   The Pivot and Filter dialog displays. You can rearrange and filter the dimensions here.
5. Option 1: Toggle right the Multi-Sheet Connection button.
   Option 2: Toggle right the Sync Sheets button.

   The Creating connection dialog displays, and Anaplan data is loaded into the Excel worksheet.
