Hello,
I'd like to propose an idea to help innovate smartsheets already spectacular features even more.
One feature that I do not see is essentially combining / stacking sheets as a compiled master sheet. The compiled sheet should reflect updates made from each individual sheet.
There does exist an automation where one can run the automation and the existing data will copy to another sheet; but this tends to copy the individual sheet's data with every rule ran.
The next option is to link each row from one sheet to another; but linking multiple lines of multiple sheets individually can become an ever increasing task that would not be time efficient in any workspace.
It's very similar to the concept of combining a folder of different excel sheets in using power query. Essentially, all the workbooks / sheets that are individually updated, will be reflected in the combined sheet.
- This youtuber highlights the concept I'm talking about quite nicely, and I've timestamped if interested in viewing: https://youtu.be/_ede9e5qDIM?t=419
Case Example:
- I have multiple sheets of customer feedback data that is divided per month for each sheet. All of the fields are the same in each of those sheets.
- To get a comprehensive view of all months per each sheet, I'd like to combine that data as one single sheet so I can get a full report and aggregate data more readily. This would also allow me to connect to my visualization software more readily.
- Any changes in any potential "Notes" field will also be reflected in the notes column. This will allow any updates from the individual sheet to be reflected in the compiled sheet.
Thank you,
Rana
