Re: Combine Data from 2 sheets using one common column as a link.
We found out we need to use Brandfolder to allow for the metadata to link between the sheets.
Re: Do not see "snapshot" option to request previous version of document.
Figured it out! I did not realize that not every line of the history can give a snapshot. Once I scrolled down a bunch, I found lines with down arrows where I could request a snapshot! Thanks.
Re: Sheet formulas are not auto-updating until the sheet is opened
Hello @Ami Veltrie
I believe it's still an issue.
I update sheets with data shuttle using expressions, such as the TODAY() function within them, and that seems to also update the TODAY() function without having to open the sheet.

Re: Populating parent and child rows with the same data
Hi @Tamsin
Your formula is working correctly! In your screen capture, there are blank cells in helper VRN column for the child rows. This means the COUNT of the CHILDREN in that specific column is 0, since there is no data in those child rows.
Instead of referencing your helper column in the first COUNT, make sure you're referencing a column that will always contain text or data when a row is submitted. For example:
=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN([Primary Column]@row)) = 0, PARENT([helper VRN]@row), [helper VRN]@row)
Does that make sense?
Cheers,

Re: Possible for multiple entries on a form to create separate rows?
Hi @K C Barnard
I hope you're well and safe!
I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.
Also, it is possible to create multiple rows from one form, but it can get very advanced to structure a solution. I've developed a couple of various structures for clients.
I'd recommend seeing if my two-form solution could work.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Re: Inactivate a task
There isn't a built in function for this so I would create it myself.
Set up a Check box column called Inactivate, then when its ticked the following could happen:
1) Conditional Formatting can be used to strikethrough the row
2) Automation workflow can be used to update the cell value in % complete to 1 (so that it doesn't effect % complete roll up)
3) Automation workflow #2 can be used to clear the cell value in Assigned To (so that the resource is no longer assigned to the row)
4) a Filter can be created and shared on the sheet to remove any tasks that have been checked in the Inactivated column
Would that work?
Kind regards

Re: RYG based on cell value
Hi @Sam C
Something like this perhaps?
=IF([Remaining]@row > 0, "Green", IF(AND([Remaining]@row >= 0, [Remaining]@row <= 0.5), "Yellow", "Red"))

Re: Poor Man's Datamesh
Hi Jennifer, for datamesh, when I need to filter the results I usually use a helper column that only populates my unique ID when a condition is met. So if it’s based on a checkbox, the helper column would have a formula that said something like:
=IF(checkbox@row=1, uniqueid@row, “”)

Re: Solutions as templates
Hi @PeggyLang
I hope you're well and safe!
You can't get it in the same way as the Solution Center, but you could either have a folder or Workspace that they make a copy of, or if you have access to Control Center, you could use it to create a folder/workspace.
Make sense?
Would any of those options work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Re: Check a checkbox based on the condition of other checkbox
Since you are using hierarchy, we can use something along the lines of
=IF(COUNTIFS(DESCENDANTS(), @cell = 1)> 0, 1)
