Hello Smartsheet friends!

What are some best practices in organizing Workspaces, folders, sheets, etc...?

I'm looking for any ideas on how to organize everything. What would work great, but doesn't seem to be available is either…

Formulas for Calculating Time
I have decided to create a post that consolidates all of the different time based solutions that I have put together. Some of these solutions can be made more efficient or condensed into fewer but larger formulas. I am still going through these working on making them more efficient and tweaking them, but all of them have…

Hello Everyone, Recently myself and two fellow Smartsheet Sales Engineers, @Lea Gikas and @Dave Stanley got together to create a WBS solution powered by Column Formulas. We wanted to provide the resulting configuration to the community in case some may find it helpful in executing project management solutions, this…

Quick way to copy formulas across sheets I found
Problem: I had the need to copy a list of 26 formulas to 56 sheets maintaining the formulas for each sheet. to increase the data collection across the sheets. All sheets have the same column names. Smartsheet defaults to saving the end result, and doesn't offer the ability to just copy the formulas from one column in one…
Formula To Indicate A Task Is Ready Because Predecessors Are Complete [Solution]
I have seen many posts about people wanting the ability to indicate a particular task/row is ready to begin because all of the predecessors are complete (many of them archived). All of the proposed solutions had short comings (e.g. only works on rows with a single FS predecessor with no lag). Here is my full solution to…
Daily Update Solution without the need to open the sheet, use Zapier, or similar
Hi everyone, Happy New Year! I hope you're well and safe! I've developed a way to use the newly released Record a date feature to update sheets with today's date automatically without the need to open it or similar. 1. Add a so-called helper column. (Date). We can call it Today Helper and add a date before the current day.…
Auto-Create Child Rows WITHOUT Bridge or API
This initial solution is based on form submissions being made and each form submission triggering the creation of a set of "template" child rows per submission WITHOUT the need for a 3rd party app, the premium add-on Bridge, or the API. So if your form submissions look like this: Your working sheet could look like this:…
URL Query String and CHAR() Function Helper Sheet
Greetings all, Because I grew tired of spending an inordinate amount of time piecing together URL query strings, I've compiled all of the UTF-8 character codes (that I came across) into an easy to use reference sheet. I've also added in a column for the corresponding CHAR() function codes and conditionally formatted the…
Lock or Store Date/Value Solution without using Zapier
Hi all, I hope you're well and safe! I've developed a solution that lets you store the date or value. You'd use the copy-row automation and a VLOOKUP or combination of INDEX/MATCH to make it work. We'd trigger the copy-row to another sheet and get the created date/other value and then use the VLOOKUP/INDEX/MATCH to get it…

Hi all - I'm excited to share a custom Javascript solution with my fellow Bridge users. I am not a Jscript coder - all credit for this goes to the awesome @Nathan Lloyd at Smartsheet - Large Enterprise Technical Sales Engineer, who gave me the basis for this script at ENGAGE 2022. Thank you Nathan! In this thread I'll…
