Hello,
I have been trying to find a work around for an issue I am having on sheet we use. We are currently using a sheet for employees to submit when they check out and check in equipment via a form. We were using the auto created date column to run reports on what equipment were checked out vs. available. We discovered that all submissions after 5pm are not registered because they are treated like the are submitted for the next day. Our account administrator is reluctant to change the working hours to be more than 8 hours due to impact on over sheets. Is there a way to use a formula to date/count when new rows are inserted correctly. see the photo for more details.
This has been discussed in several different threads.
What you are seeing is a known issue related to the way Smartsheet stores the timestamp and UTC.
Since I travel back and forth between the USA and Europe, I see this a lot.
