Re: Seat Type Report to show Owner Status
I agree, this needs to be changed. If the Seat Type report is the one we are being told to use, it needs to accurately reflect the highest permission of Owner. If you are able to put "Owner" in the Sheet Access report, you can put it in Seat Type as well. There is no logical reason to have it set up this way.

Column Links Overwrite Warning
July 16, 2025
This release introduces a warning when data would be overwritten by a new column link configuration.
In the case data would be overwritten by a new column link configuration, users will now see a warning if a column that already has data in it. This is in response to user feedback in cases where column links wiped out previous data when this was not the desired or expected behavior.
In addition, matches will no longer be made to blank cells in the unique ID column, instead only matching when a unique ID is present.

Re: NEW! Modern chart styling and readability enhancements
Hello everyone, thank you for your feedback and patience! I wanted to share a few updates that we have made:
- On pie and donut charts, labels that are %s have been reset to show whole numbers.
- Legends no longer display the value. This should help with the other issue of legend items being truncated behind "+N more", but we're also thinking about a more direct solution for that issue.
- Custom font size setting now works with multi-widget editing. You can select multiple widgets at a time and set the font size (found in Series).
I hope this helps. I'll keep you all posted as more updates go out.

Re: Smartsheet recognized as a Customers' Choice in the Gartner® Peer Insights™ + Giveaway
One clever way I’ve used Smartsheet that I’m proud of:
I created a Smartsheet-based backup check-in, check-out, and scheduling system for our clinics to use during Epic (EHR) outages. Knowing how critical it is to maintain clinic operations during system downtimes, I designed a streamlined, user-friendly solution that allows staff to continue managing patient flow and appointments with minimal disruption.
The registration process is enhanced with several automations—including logic that auto-fills procedure durations based on the type selected and flags overlapping appointments, helping to ensure accuracy and efficiency. We're also leveraging Smartsheet Data Shuttle to automatically import patient data for a given time period, so clinic staff have a preloaded schedule to work from even if Epic is unavailable. This proactive setup has become a key part of our downtime readiness plan. Along with that also using conditions to indicate no shows patients, checked in and checked out patients in color codes.
In addition, I developed a centralized Training Homepage in Smartsheet for our employees. It features quick tips, how-to guides, embedded training videos, and best practices to support ongoing learning. It’s been a valuable resource for onboarding and empowering team members across the organization.

Re: AND and HAS functions in a formula
Thanks very much! The formula for multiselect worked.
I actually had the formula working perfectly until I had to add that second criteria of federal.

Re: July Question of the Month - Join the conversation and receive a badge
I had two main goals for the year.
The first, which was Smartsheet related, was to push the growth of Smartsheet through the business with the help of one of my colleagues. Together we have reached all areas of the group functions and are building solutions to grow further in to many of the different brands. The business are now looking to utilise some more premium features as a result.
The second, which was a personal goal, was to be healthier and lose some weight. It was a slow start until March, when I got a kick up the bum that I needed. Almost, 4 months later and I am midway through a couch to 5k program, swimming twice a week and the most exciting part, over 27Kg down (or 4 1/2 stone to those of us from the UK).
Both goals are being well and truly smashed and I could not be happier! 😁 🎉

Re: Smartsheet recognized as a Customers' Choice in the Gartner® Peer Insights™ + Giveaway
Hello everyone!
I do quite a bit of freelancing, and Smartsheet is a big part of my work. Recently, I helped a very distraught doctor who worked at a business with limited funds. He was trying to figure out how to test his students on their practicals in real time using technology. After the exams, he also wanted the ability to send results both to the students and to the facilitators.
I built a solution in Smartsheet that allowed him to grade his students on over 400 questions, using more than 400 columns! I set up custom automations, workflows, and email notifications so results could be distributed quickly and efficiently. He was thrilled with the outcome and was able to increase his efficiency by over 50% as he transitioned from paper-based exams to a fully digital process.
This was one of my proudest projects since it made such an impact on his work.
