Is there a way to Auto Mirror specific columns from one sheet to another?

I am new to smart sheets so please forgive me.

Basically I have one sheet that we do all of our progress tracking on one main sheet with each row being a different address. I need to make another sheet for look ahead scheduling but I do not want to have to copy and paste from one sheet to another. Also when I add new addresses to the main sheet I want it to autofill to the second sheet.

Is this possible?

    Hi @Petey

    I hope you're well and safe!

    You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.

    To connect them row by row, you'd use an Autonumber Column in the Source sheet and add a so-called helper column to manually add the row id on as many rows as you think you need in the Destination sheet.

    Would that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
