I have inherited and existing Smartsheet, which I am just learning. The dashboard has a metric widget with a week of, but it does not change we are stuck on one week. I have a column that is now labeled as "Week Of" the cells show the date as 07/28/24 and the column type has been changed to date. How do I go about setting this up so that the date from that week pulls from the source date and if need be I change the date and look at a previous weeks data?
