Re: Request for Rollback - create sheets in Sheets folder
Yes Agree!! This is very difficult to manage. Please allow sheets to be created in your sheets folder.
Group Notifications
I would love to see the ability to group/sort my notifications and automations on sheets for ease of duplication.
Re: Constraint Types in Gantt View
Hi, a year on and we are still waiting for a Gantt development space that respects manually entered ‘must start on’ dates linked with predecessor that might finish early creating some free float and not automatically change the starting date of task B to be the finishing date of task A.
When will the developers catch up with this basic functionality please.
Re: Request for Rollback - create sheets in Sheets folder
Yes agree! This is cumbersome and less collaborative. Please allow sheets to be created without a workspace. Also please allow editor with a license to create a sheet in a workspace. This is hindering work efficiency. The workspace is too locked down to make work easy. As a workspace owner, I was not able to drag a sheet that I was an Admin on into the workspace I own. This is not working well.

Re: Automation emails and text
So I think I have solved this in the most basic of ways.
I deleted my contacts list as I was unable to amend the Name only the email part of the list.
I then retyped a contacts list where only the email was entered and the name left blank as my users should recognise their own email address.
This resulted in the entries in the Requested By Email field to be just the email address and this pulled through to the automated email when accessed {{Requested By Email}}
I will be raising a product enhancement request for this as it seems daft that a contact list cannot access JUST the email part or even both without manual intervention
Thanks for all the support and help as I have learnt a lot with the different things tried

Re: Zapier with the .eu version of Smartsheet
I would also like this. There is nothing on the Smartsheet site to say that there are limited features on the EU version so I signed up today but can't connect to Zapier!
Re: User Subscription Model - NEED a static VIEWER ONLY option (interns, temps etc.)
This would be awesome. I've had to reorganize my division's Smartsheets as some individuals require higher level permission sets to make edits and changes however they are not in a role that should determine other users' permissions sets themselves. #permission #security #restricteddata #masterdataspecialist #needtoknowpolicy

Re: Dynamic dropdowns - Waterfall request
I have set up Smartsheet at the primary project management platform in the last and current organization that work in. I can say without a doubt that dynamic drop-down lists is the single greatest opportunity to improve Smartsheet. There are numerous data sheets (employees, projects, equipment,etc.,etc.) that are maintained and for which the the values must be selected in other sheets. Manually maintaining these drop-down lists is a huge obstacle as different departments are responsible for the different data. Excel has been able to to this for decades (selecting a range for drop down values) and it seems relatively simple. The absence of this feature in Smartsheet is quite baffling to me, to be honest. My assumption is that there are economic reasons blocking this from being done as it would reduce the need for other paid features. Is that that case or is the team honestly trying to implement it? I have been following this feature request (which has been submitted multiple times) for 5 years and seen a tone of formatting and beautification updated come out in that time. I have no idea why any energy would be placed into those things before addressing this problem.
Re: Date and Timestamp Action in an Automation Workflow
This is urgent for me, I am using smartsheet for a few months and this is evolving really good, but this function is mandatory for my projects, like sharepoint lists has with NOW() default value
Re: Conversion of timezones (Solved Formula Included)
It was an issue with the formula in the New Date column. I wrote my solution out "on the fly" and hadn't tested the full thing.
When I plugged it into a sheet, I got an #INVALID OPERATION ERROR in the [New Date] column.
.
=IF([Add Hours]@row >= 24, 1) + DATEONLY(Created@row)
Produced the error, but flipping it around so that it was the date first
=DATEONLY(Created@row) + IF([Add Hours]@row >= 24, 1)
worked.
.
HERE is a published version.
