Consolidated SmartSheet

Hi all,

I am pretty new to Smartsheet and in need of some help. We are using smartsheet for an upcoming budget task. I have created over 50 different sheets. In each sheet there is a column with checkboxes. I want to have a user check the box when the specific task is completed. My question is, is there a way to create a consolidated sheet that totals up all of the checkboxes that have been checked off? In other words, if 5 sheets have checked off their box out of the 10 total sheets can I have the consolidated sheet show that "5 of 10 sheets have check the box"? Or have that spit out a percentage? I have used a percent column, but would rather use checkboxes to make it easier for the end user.

Thank you for your help!

    Create a cell that counts the number of checks for the "checked" column in each sheet. That will give you your count. Then create a master sheet and cell link to each sheet for your number. 

    =COUNTIF(CheckedColumn:CheckedColumn,1)

    If you need percentage completion count all in the column

    =COUNT(CheckedColumn:CheckedColumn)

    then cell link to your master sheet (hide this if you prefer on your master sheet). Then you will have a nice percentage across all sheets.
