Editable Sheet Summary Report

It would be a good addition to Smartsheet to be able to edit data in Sheet Summary reports, just like we can edit regular Row Reports.

I don't understand why the 'two-way' data entry functionality between Sheets and Reports does not apply to Sheet Summary fields.

While using Smartsheet, I have found that many people are losing certain notification (they are there, just surrounded by many others), I've been thinking about what a potential enhancement would look like to significantly benefit the user experience around notifications: the ability to categorise notifications within Smartsheet. Adding this feature would streamline communication and task management by organising notifications into distinct categories, such as:

Alerts: Timely notifications for critical events or impending deadlines.
Update Requests: Simplified communication for requested updates.
Approval Requests: Efficient management of notifications related to the approval workflows.

I believe there would be support for this idea within the Smartsheet community and am sure this is not an issue isolated to my organisation.

I believe that implementing this feature would not only enhance the user experience but also contribute to increased productivity and streamlined workflows for Smartsheet users everywhere.

I'd like to extend an invitation to consider this suggestion for future updates. I'm certain that this enhancement would further solidify Smartsheet's position as a leading platform for efficient project and task management.

Thank you for your dedication to continually improving the Smartsheet experience. Your attention to user feedback is truly appreciated.

Reporting Capability - Auditing on when and by whom a column has changed

Ability to create a report on change activity for a certain column and have details for auditing purposes. The activity log does not provide enough filtering and drill into for audit reporting to use and find information required.

Re: Introduce yourself & get to know your peers!

Hello everyone,

I am Jacob. I am a former naval cryptologic technician in the Navy, and I’m now working for a major tech company in Texas! I am paving an efficient way for our security teams to manage events across many locations, while utilizing all of smartsheet’s core and premium features. Smartsheet has allowed me to sync all of these sites together and pull important metric data for weekly, monthly, and quarterly reports.

Smartsheet has opened the door for a lot of opportunity in my life, and I am extremely thankful for the community — who has graciously taken the time to answer so many important and difficult questions. Over the past several months of simply reading the community forums, and help documentation I was able to take the smartsheet core product certification and pass it with ease!

Outside of work, I enjoy the lake life, electric skateboarding, my dogs, and providing the same help back to the community which helped me evolve my understanding of smartsheet.

Re: Connect and hear from past ENGAGE attendees 👋

What would I say to someone who's considering attending ENGAGE for the first time?

Go. Don't just "consider" it. Book the ticket. Get the hotel room. Arrange the transportation, and just go.
Very comfortable shoes are a must.
Check out every single booth even if it doesn't initially seem applicable to any of your use cases.
Carefully plan your breakout sessions in advance. A lot of them are repeated throughout the day as well as on other days, so you may be able to catch more than you think.
But... Leave plenty of time for networking and chatting.
Plan to stay hydrated. #4 can dry you out pretty quickly.
I like to keep cough drops on hand as well. I find myself talking so much more in just one day while there than I normally do in an entire week. Add in the always dry air from a hotel room, and it is easy to end up losing your voice if you aren't careful.
Bring something that has plenty of room for notes. Lots and lots of notes.
FOR THE FELLOW INTROVERTS: Just because you walked out doesn't mean you can't come back in. Step outside for some fresh air, take a walk back to your hotel room, find a quiet spot somewhere for a little bit to recharge on a regular basis throughout the day.
Don't be afraid to approach people. I have found that the Smartsheet Community is a different one. Titles are just titles. People from every "level" come together for a common passion. No one in unapproachable (unless they are giving a presentation and then maybe wait until they are done hahaha).
Nerd out. I mean really nerd out. Everyone is there for the same thing. WE LOVE SMARTSHEET. Collect the buttons, wear the swag, grab the stickers, share your stories, tips, and tricks, be excited.
GET ENGAGED!!

Re: Hidden Fields in Card View

we use a lot of formulas in grid view to do some automation and update certain cells. We also use card view to facilitate team meetings. During the team meetings, if we need to update a card, we can see all the formulas (hidden fields from grid view).

This creates a lot of confusion with the meeting facilitators who don't often know what these fields are or how to use them. We would love the ability to hide fields in card view!
