Re: Join the conversation on STEM education and help nurture the next generation of visionaries
My love for STEM started at a young age with my first trip to Johnson Space Center and meeting some of the first women astronauts. Working with Smartsheet these last couple of years has unlocked my love of technology and I'm thankful my employer encourages our continuous learning.

Re: Group WorkSpaces and organize them in "folders"
Workspace folders would definitely help me. As someone who creates workspaces for projects and across departments, my list is long.
Resource Management Analytics - Report by User, Utilization/Allocation, and Project
We'd like the ability to create a Utilization Report that groups by Name and then shows the Project Allocation %. We have the ability to group by Team Member but we cannot "Then Group By" Project.
We'd like to see the percentage allocation as a report in Resource Management by the Resource Allocation Plan from SmartSheet. We have the ability to "Then group by" Discipline or Role but we need by Project. "First group by" also does not have Project as an option.
When you view People, on their display record it shows the individual utilization/allocation % but we'd like a bulk report for all the users

Re: Adding Images in Form Body and Descriptions
I agree this is a much-needed functionality. Many form builders have this out the box.
Re: Group WorkSpaces and organize them in "folders"
Like this:
~WORKSPACES (as it is called now)
>Department 1
>>Workspace 1
>>>Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards
>>Workspace 2
>>>Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards
>>Workspace 3
>>>Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards
>Department 2
>>Workspace 2.1
>>>Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards
>>Workspace 2.2
>>>Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards
>+ More Departments & Workspaces w/ Folders/Sheets/Reports/Dashboards and so-on...
Sharing/Permissions could be grouped in a tree from the broader Department level to the specific Workspaces within a Department. Then, add the ability to group any of the workspaces that you belong to and organize them into folders inside your own Sheets folder. That'd be awesome!
Allow automation to populate cells with formulas.
For some reason the devs have blocked using =formula() and they populate cells with '=formula() when you try to use the features in conjunction. This makes your formulas inert and is quite frustrating. This seems like such a easy way to increase efficiency in the program and should be implemented immediately. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
Re: Row automation - add to top of sheet
Top of the sheet would be preferred rather than bottom of the sheet. The option to select bottom or top would be good as well but in a dream world, it could transfer under the corresponding parent if the column identified it.

Enterprise Plans - Active Directory Integration for Contact Columns
I would like the ability to have the option to add all Smartsheet users in the same plan as dropdown options in a contact column.
For enterprise plans using AD, this would create an active staff dropdown column. This would solve many issues and workarounds for HR, IT, and PM functions.
Re: Provide users with the ability to Print a Grouped Report
This continues to be an issue when trying to share PDF reports with our clients. When the grouping is lost on the PDF export, the report flattens out and provides no value to the client like it does online.
What is the anticipated time frame for this issue to be resolved? It looks like the last response from SS was in 2022.
Thank you for your help in resolving this!
