This page enables you to manage a list of generic time periods used for analyzing seasonality. Planning periods are defined time intervals that are used for all planning data. You can adjust the periods to match your business calendar.

The setup of seasonal periods is managed by Anaplan at system setup. However, you may need to remove periods to match your calendar.

Steps

The table displays a list of periods with the Period Number and Display Name.

Delete Seasonal Periods

To delete one or more seasonal periods:

  1. Select Delete? for the periods you want to delete.
  2. Select Delete Seasonal Periods to delete the selected seasonal periods.

Override a Period's Default Name

To override a seasonal period's default name:

  1. Select the Override Default Name? option. The corresponding Name cell is highlighted yellow.
  2. Double click the Name column, specify the new name, and press Enter.
    The changes are synched across the app at the next system refresh.
