Employee Scheduling
Does anyone use Smartsheets for employee scheduling? I have about 25 people across four sites that I schedule. There are changes everyday. I also need to save a history of the schedules. I currently use excel and google docs. Thank you. Robert
Column Filter
Hi all I am not sure if I am missing something with the way filters work in Smartsheet but is it right that I cannot add a filter to each column which automatically updates the list of inputs from the data in the cells below it? Basically I want what Excel does when you highlight the titles of a column and hit the filter…

Create an automation to set column value on a new row
I'm trying to create my first automation, and although it seems like a dead simple use case, I can't get it to work. I simply want a default value for one of my columns.

To count when the responses are all in, I am moving the entry to a new sheet and counting the references that…
Can I use a condition to remove a user from receiving weekly notifications on an automation?
I have a weekly automation set to send to everyone in my 'owner' column. As each owner completes their assignment, they no longer want the weekly reminder to do their work. How can I remove them and keep the rest?
"Record a Date" Automation to a Cell in a Hidden Column
I have lots of sheets for a reviewing process - each item to review has a new sheet from a template. Each sheet has about 30 rows and a summary sheet.
