Add Source Sheet When Copying Rows to New Sheet

Charles_M

Is it possible to put a link to the source sheet that a row was copied from in the copied to sheet with a formula so it adds the source each time? Sort of like a report will give the source sheet. I'm copying rows to a rollup sheet, but I'd like the roll up sheet to have the link so it is easy for the used to go to the source to edit the item.

Or, when copying rows to a new sheet is there a way to keep them linked so if either is edited both change?

Hi @Charles_M

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit this as a Product Feedback or Idea (If it hasn't been added already) when you have a moment.

Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

• Add a so-called helper column with the link to the sheet so it's included in the copied rows

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,
