It would be amazing if we could pin comments to the top of the 'comment list' for lack of a better word. For our industry we track additional work requested. We have a form - but our field operations find sometimes its hard to stop mid job to fill one out but if they could go into the comments box to a pinned 'Extras' comment at the top and -edit and add the extra for the day they would find it helpful.
The other issue with the form for extras is we really need a way for a customer to sign off on the additional work request - Has there been any consideration to adding a sign now option using your finger with the app - like with you make a digital purchase and sign?
Thank you1
It would be super helpful to have the ability to capture signatures on forms.
Is there any update on this topic? Hopefully they have workaround.
Haven't seen any movement on this signature aspect, but hopefully it's something Smartsheet will consider.
The ability to capture actual signatures, rather than a check-off of Approve/Decline, would be very useful in certain situations (like a certain process I'm trying to set up now).
This would be very helpful for a lot of scenarios that require a signature (not just a consent checkbox).
It'd also require a new Column type "Signature" which can either only work from the form or will need some pop-up to sign it. (You can't sign a cell with characters or a checkbox, so it'd need to be a new field type with a small picture of the signature embedded in the cell).
It would be great if a compliant signature/date could be required for any entries in specified column. A compliant text/number column, perhaps.
I agree this addition would be very helpful.
we use forms in a manufacturing environment and having the ability to sign the form would be really beneficial. Training records, Testing, manufacturing records require signatures.
Using a signature box directly within Smartsheet for things like accident/incident reporting, training sign-offs, and similar processes seems like a great idea for several reasons, especially when we want to simplify operations and cut down on the need for multiple software systems. Here's why I believe this could be beneficial:
Having a signature box in Smartsheet helps keep everything in one place. Instead of relying on separate systems for incident reporting, training, and electronic signatures (such as DocuSign), everything can be handled within Smartsheet. This reduces complexity and streamlines workflows, which means less time spent switching between different tools.
By integrating the signature box directly into Smartsheet, we can eliminate the need to use multiple platforms for each step of a process. Whether it’s signing off on training or documenting an incident, everything can be done in one place. This speeds up the process and helps ensure things don’t get delayed because of having to go through external platforms.
When using multiple systems, there’s always the risk of data being duplicated or missed altogether, which could lead to mistakes—like a missing signature or an incorrect entry. By having the signature box within Smartsheet, everything stays in the same record, meaning we’re less likely to lose track of important information.
For things like incident reporting or training, keeping everything compliant and easy to audit is critical. With a signature box in Smartsheet, it’s easier to track who signed what and when, all within the same platform. This also allows us to keep a clear audit trail, which is invaluable when it comes to meeting compliance standards. Plus, setting up reminders or alerts helps ensure that nothing slips through the cracks.
Since we’re already using Smartsheet for various tasks, having the signature box functionality integrated eliminates the need for an additional subscription to services like DocuSign. This can result in savings on external software costs, making it a more affordable and efficient solution in the long run.
Smartsheet offers a lot of flexibility in terms of customising workflows, forms, and data collection. This means the signature box can be tailored exactly to what we need—whether it’s setting up automated approvals, conditional workflows, or even integrating with other Smartsheet functions. This customisation gives us the freedom to adapt the system to our specific requirements without being restricted by external platforms.
One of the best features of Smartsheet is that it updates in real-time. Once a signature is added, everything is immediately updated across teams, meaning everyone has access to the latest information. Whether it’s confirming that training has been completed or an incident report has been signed off, we can all access the most up-to-date details straight away, without delays.
Smartsheet makes generating reports incredibly easy. Once a signature is added, it can trigger updates to automatically create or refresh reports—whether it’s a report on training completion, incident handling, or anything else that requires sign-off. This means we can track progress and see where things stand at any given moment, without needing to compile data from multiple systems.
Integrating a signature box directly into Smartsheet for processes like incident reporting and training sign-offs would help simplify our workflows, reduce the need for extra software, and ensure everything stays in one easily accessible place. It would save time, reduce the risk of errors, improve compliance, and streamline communication across the business. For me, it feels like a straightforward, effective way to make our operations run more smoothly and efficiently.
Our program has upwards of 50 active projects at a single time. To assist with team resourcing, we would like to view all our projects in a single Gantt chart where each project and all its phases are condensed into one row, and project phases are horizontally stacked on the same line (swimlane), rather than children in…
Description: When users upload multiple photos in one action via the Smartsheet iOS mobile app, all files are assigned the same generic name and timestamp. This makes it difficult to identify individual photos and creates confusion in workflows that rely on accurate, unique file naming. Why This Matters: Industry Standard:…
Our consistent experience is that Smartsheet objects can take anywhere from 5-20 seconds to load. This feels extremely slow when you're actively facilitating a call and working between sheets, waiting for it to load. Other solutions in the industry have extremely fast, sub-5-second load times. I would request the product…
