Editing an email sent from a row
I was wondering if there is a way to have someone edit a field when you just send a row to someone. What I mean by this is would be the person receiving the email able to check completed or update a date from just the email rather than sending someone an update request?
Left Horizontal Scroll with Mouse
Any time I try to scroll left on a sheet, it takes me back to the previous page. So, if I am in a sheet and cannot see the left most columns, I have to select a random cell and hit the left arrow key until I can see the left columns. Right scroll works fine. I tried 'shift', it did not work. Any solutions or anyone else…
If then statements with date fields
Hello. I am trying to calculate a date field based on the following manually entered data: * If "Project status" is not "Cancelled" [drop down field] * And "Const duration" is not null [text/number field] * Then add "Const duration" to "Start date" to equal "Completion date" * For example: * Start date is 6/21/18 &…
Restrict to login by ip address
Has Smartsheet got any functions to block by public ip address except single IP? My wish is to use only our local network in our office.
Inventory help.
I am looking to use smartsheet for inventory. I have one item that we stock and I would want to scan the bar code in to record the s/n and when an order prints to be able to scan the bar code removing the item out of inventory. I used the "barcode inventory management" template but it works great for adding inventory but I…
Not receiving notifications
Hello everyone, I am fairly new to the Smartsheet app, as well as community. I am having issues with not receiving notifications, when a certain task (column) is populated. I have created a Smartsheet to order materials from outside vendors. There are to be multiple employees adding stuff to this sheet, and one or two…
Link clients, jobs and opportunities
Hi guys. I use SmartSheet to track clients, jobs and opportunities. I have a sheet for each. For the most part, it works well. But the one area it's letting me down is linking relevant records. I'd like to be able to go to the client card and see all their jobs and opportunities. And I'd like to be able to go to a job or…
Offline Access Please oh Please....
Hello, I see that there are many other threads requesting this feature but nothing recently from Smartsheet staff saying whether or not this request is being taken seriously. Does anyone know if there are any plans at all for this to be added in the future? Not being offline is a major issue for us as we go to places often…
Attachment Library
Anyway, the same attachment can be selected to be attached to a row in another sheet. This is a common problem. We run projects, and upload files to the project sheet. But each project could have several sheets. And the same attachment is required on other sheets as well. Is there a way to have a central area for…
If updates are made to one smartsheet, can it be ported to another?
I have two smart sheets that are almost identical(one is a copy of the other - except I removed 3 columns). I am looking for a functionality such that if updates are made to one, the second smartsheet gets updated automatically! The reason for two smartsheets and updates is because the audience for both the files is…

Can automated emails from a sheet be forced to individual emails?
Smartsheet is currently combining my automated emails from multiple lines into a single email. Is there a way to force each line to get its own email? I have column placeholders in the subject and body of the message, but it always combines lines into a single email when the automations are triggered at the same time for…
No Support!
We have 4 users who have the basic Smartsheet account. I am aware there were changes recently, but do not understand the terminology or how it affects us. The employees use the bare basics of Smartsheet - update status of tasks, update their timesheet, or training matrix, or HSE tasks i.e. date, complete. As an SME and the…
Smartsheet Setting
In Smartsheet, we can publish a sheet with an open link for anyone to edit. However, this same setting for publishing a report with an open link for anyone to edit is disabled at our enterprise level. Do you know if there is a reasoning for this feature to be disabled for reports but not sheets? Thank you in advance for…
