Re: How Do I Generate a Metrics in Dashboard Displaying a % Difference for Various Months for Two #'s
That's because you have an IF statement in there without it's various arguments. Get rid of the IF and you should see the result you're looking for. You can wrap it in an IFERROR statement if you want to remove errors like DIVIDE BY ZERO.
=IFERROR(([Column 9]32-[Column 9]28)/[Column 9]28,"")
Or if you want to use IF to check for things like 0 values like you have on your archive sheet, you need to finish the IF statement. Like
=IFERROR(IF(([Column 9]32-[Column 9]28)/[Column 9]28 =0, "", ([Column 9]32-[Column 9]28)/[Column 9]28) ,"")

Re: Do leading zeroes affect "duplicate flag" formulas?
Leading zeros will affect this because that changes it from numerical data to a text string. Now you have two different data types within the range, and that throws the COUNTIFS off every time.
Insert a helper column (can be hidden after setting up) and use this to convert every row into a text string.
=[ID Number]@row + ""
plus quote quote
Then reference this helper column in your COUNTIFS.

Re: Do leading zeroes affect "duplicate flag" formulas?
Try an @cell reference in your COUNTIFS.
=IF(COUNTIFS([Column Name]:[Column Name], @cell = [Column Name]@row)> 1, 1)

Re: Sharing a Sheet
Ah - the top one is greyed out. Are you an Admin on your account? If you go to:
Settings - Security Controls - Smartsheet Admin Center
You should be able to enable that option if desired.

Re: How to recreate a payment month Excel formula in Smartsheet
What's the logic? It looks to me like you want to output a date. If the date is less than or equal to the third of the month then output the date, otherwise output the date plus 30 days?
If so, it would look something like:
=IF(DAY([Date Column]@row)<= 3, [Date Column]@row, [Date Column]@row + 30)

Re: How do I remove column checkmarks from a parent row?
@kronschobl Unfortunately, you can't not have that. Since SS is more akin to a database than an excel sheet alternative, all columns have to have the same format. BUT, here is a discussion about how to make it "appear" like there is no checkbox.
Hope that helps!

Re: SUCCESSORS Testing
UPDATE: @Genevieve P. helped me solve this use case:
=IF(FIND(",", Successor@row) > 0, "Multiple", IF(Successor@row = "", "None", JOIN(COLLECT([Assigned To]:[Assigned To], Row:Row, HAS(Successor@row, @cell)), CHAR(10))))
Re: Formatting Reports
+1 for this. I am bringing together 8 departments worth of status sheets, all with their own formatting, and the report is a visual mess.
Re: Disable License Request Features
I agree with the other posters to remove the "request full license" hyperlink. It's pretty clear to corporate users that if they want a license for software they need to request it from their IT department. They can do that by email and don't need to go through Smartsheet to do so.
Another downside to this messaging is that when presenting a sheet to a customer, it gives the perception that you're using less-than-full-featured free software and are too cheap to pay for a license (which they may not realize isn't necessary).
Re: [UPDATED] Community Reward Program 🏆
Thanks for following up, @Arsineh. I now see that the stars are gray rather than yellow. The announcement implied they'd be yellow, and seeing 6 gray stars by my name I assumed I still had to watch the yellows grow. Since I'm already evidently at Ambassador level, though, I'll simply be happy to continue contributing as I'm able. I'll submit the requests for the other badges (though I don't see that's possible with Photogenic :).
