'Force' form interface with a sheet
I have a sheet which I'd like people to only access via a form on the Dashboard. Is that possible?
Reports not refreshing, again
Hi I'm finding that reports are not refreshing accurately when the underlaying data, in a smartsheet, has changed (and been saved before you ask). The source data is around 20 rows so this should not be a problem. We have seen this issue previously. It seems to fix itself - i.e. we make no changes and suddenly the report…

Conditional Formatting if Calculated
Greetings, yes, here's another post about conditional formatting. I swear that I have searched and cannot find the answer to this, so...

Improvement Recommendation - Automate Move Rows
I've been working extensively with the recently updates process automation features and while they are very robust once you get used to them, there is one glaringly obvious addition to be made that I think many will benefit from. For those of us that use multiple sheets with various pieces of relational data, an automated…
Moved a sheet and now the data won't show up in reports
I had a full project plan in one folder. Then, I saved as new in another folder and deleted the original. The original plan was showing up in reports just fine. But, the new version will not show up in any reports. I have ensured that the new folder is selected when I build the report. I've even created test reports that…
Embed an update request form on a dashboard?
Hi, I am using smartsheet to administer small grants and organise the adjudicators. The dashboard is great because I can include the adjudicating instructions in one widget so it's easy to refer to whilst judging. What I was wondering is if there is some way of embedding the update request form into a dashboard. I can send…

I have an automation set up to remind me to send the store an email 2 days prior. In my "Notify Store" column I have a formula for schedule date -2, but I don't know how to exclude weekends so that the…
