Performance

Same dimensions in a different order

Use one order for the same set of lists across the model: mixed Applies To orders make references slower and the model harder to follow.

What MaxCheck detects

A module or line item whose Applies To has the same lists as others but in a different order.

Why it hurts

Anaplan lays out cells in Applies To order. Mixed orders for the same lists make references between them slower and the model harder to follow.

Example

Taken from the rule's own test cases: formulas it must flag, and formulas it must not.

WarningFlags this(two modules, same lists, different order)

Module 1Applies To: Products, Regions

Module 2Applies To: Products, Regions

Fine (same order everywhere)

How to fix

Use one order for the same set of lists across the model. The finding names the order most of the model uses.
