Copying column headings and layout from one sheet to a new one
Good morning all We've had a message pop up stating that we've reached our quota for one of the sheets we're using. I'd like to be able to quickly replicate the sheet again on another new sheet, along with the form we use, colour scheme, and current layout. Is this possible?
SmartSheet Update
Can someone tell me what I need to do so I can have a sheet out of Smartsheet sent out weekly at a specific time to resources listed on the shared list for it?
Gantt Chart Start & Finsh dates Change
If my Start or Finsh date changes from the orginal schedule how can we show the progress or delay in the schedule. Currently I'm re-entering the Start or Finish date. So I'm lossing the orginal to show us any gains or losses. I do not want to loss the predecessors link to the task.
Turn off smartsheet system alert
Hi, Is there a way to turn this notification off permanently? I don't want to use the function (ever at the moment) but the first time I assign an allocation on every new sheet, this pops up and I have to choose "not now". I would really like to say "not now and don't ask me again". Is that possible? Thanks.
Lock single cell
Hi SM Team, What's the latest for this feature ? Is it possible to lock a single cell ? Thanks in advance for your answer
If statement paired with a Smartsheet Symbol
Hello, Is there a way to pair one of the smartsheet symbols to the "value_if_true" statement in the IF equation? My thought process is that when a field is entered as "yes" in smartsheets, then I can have a status column next to it turn green, yellow, etc.. If there is another way to do this in the grid format without…
Uniform Inventory
Does anyone have a use case where they track uniform requests? We have a 8-10 types of uniforms that vary in sizes. I need to track (via form) what people want, and have it pull from our inventory. I'm just not sure the best way to set up my sheet. Any ideas are welcomed!
Image In Parent Task Reference Broken
The following PARENT image cells in Grid View used to transfer to a image in the CHILD. Now, instead of having the image, in this case "hr.gif", display inside the card in the Card View, the card displays "hr.gif". Can this be fixed to work like it did?
Cannot update % Complete via Update Request form
Hello Smartsheet community, Hoping this is simple user error, but can't seem to figure this one out. I have a PM who needs to submit an update request to her team and have her team submit an updated % Complete in return. Right now, recipients are seeing an non-editable field where % Complete appears. I tried launching…
Dates are not labeled in card view
I am using card view quite a lot and have recently created more dates: Received Date Start Date Due Date Completion Date The trouble is, they appear on the cards with no labels, just a list of dates. And those dates aren't even in order from top to bottom! So I have a list of scrambled, random-looking dates that are…

Schedule Dates Minus 2 days Except Weekends
I'm trying to figure out a formula. I have a customer that requires a 2 day notice that my crew will be onsite to work. 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…
PDF Generator Automation Attachments
I've set up an automation to generate a PDF when a row of data is submitted via a form. I have another automation to generate the PDF again each time data in the row changes. I am finding that the subsequent PDF attachment is replacing the first in attachments. Is there a way to have the subsequent PDF added as an…
Inform team on general sheet
Hi, Is there a way, now on a row but sheet level to inform the team whom the sheet has been shared with about modifications done to said sheet. E.g.; I have added locations to a locations column and would like to inform all sheet collaborators on it. Additionally I would like to ask some if moving forward to make a form on…
