Re: @Mentions in Dynamic Views in WorkApps
Hi @MHalvey
Firstly, thank you for posting about your process and experience! This content would be helpful for the Product team to hear as well - when you have a minute, please add your vote and comments to these Product Ideas:
- @ people within WorkApps commenting
- Dynamic View Comments notifications for user without access to source sheet
To eliminate the sheet name in an email notification, you would need to use sheet workflows (versus @mention emails) and use the Message Only option. You could surface the comment in a Latest Comment column (see: Add a latest comment column) then surface that content in the message (Customize the content of your alerts and requests)
Cheers,
Genevieve

Re: Total from Another Sheet
Hey @AlexysR -
Gotcha there is two ways you can do this, either you pull the totals into their columns and then add them together on the sheet in a 3rd column using =cell1+cell2 or you can combine them like so =SUMIFS(formula 1) + SUMIFS(formula2).
In terms of the formula you used above, you are very close, just need to remove the 2nd "=" like this: =SUMIF({US Payment request Range 1}, [PO Number]@row, {US Payment request Range 2})
Does that help?

Automated workflow Outlook email with attachments based on form responses
Hi all :)
I am trying to figure out how to create an automated workflow that will email the respondent PDF forms based on their answers. To put it into context, we will be having new providers "registering" themselves using a form where I would like to have them select which programs/software they need access to. In order for them to get access, they need to fill out program/software agreement forms (like access to a client records database). I am hoping to create a workflow that sends them a copy of the specific forms they need to sign, based on which programs they need access to.
Something like:
"[Insert Name]
Thank you for registering with our program! You indicated that you need access to Asana and Miro. Please sign the attached forms and --- back to us, so we can get you started."
Ideally, if they can reupload them to SmartSheet or have some way to send them back signed to us, it will then be forwarded to the appropriate admins of the programs/software.
Is this possible?

Also, have you explored using the Document Builder feature?

Re: outside of organization
Hi @JenaW - I think Sam's reply is still on the right track. Assuming they enter the email addresses into a field called "Email", I recommend you add a column to your sheet (not on the form) called "Domain" that parses the domain of the emails they enter. Column formula = right(email@row, len(email@row)-find("@", email@row)).
Then, use an automation to send them the copy of their response: When a row is created, condition where the checkbox was checked, and where Domain = Medline.
Hope that's helpful!

Re: Why is a formula not triggering unless someone opens the sheet?
Hi @jmhoward
I hope you're well and safe!
Please have a look at my post below with a method I developed to update the sheet(s) daily.

I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Re: Why is a formula not triggering unless someone opens the sheet?
I had a similar issue and use an automation. This action will cause a virtual open/close of the sheet which will update the formulas in the sheet.
I created a column named date. Then I used automation that runs everyday at 2am. This automation records a date in the date column I created.
Re: Different Settings in Same Project Sheet
Yes! If you're using a Project Sheet with specific working days and times enabled (e.g. 5 day work week and holidays), then on the specific rows where you want it to be a 7 day work week you can use elapsed time by adding an e in front of the duration.
Here's more information: Work with Duration and Predecessors

Re: outside of organization
@JenaW exactly. However, you can directly exclude non-Medline emails in the automation, in a condition block, if you don't want to set up a formula. In the condition block you would say email contains @medline.com or whatever it is, then it would only send to emails with that domain.
If you want a checkbox still to ask if they want an email, you would add that as a question on the form, and add it to the condition block saying it's checked.
