allow users to add section to request amounts and total them
something like:
blue widgets needed - #
red widgets needed - #
green widgets needed - #
Total widgets = # blue+# red+# green

I agree. Even though a record is not actually created until the form is submitted, if the column has a column formula or uses any sheet summary fields, they should still be operational as a form is always attached (subordinate) to a sheet.
This may be difficult to achieve if the formula uses @cell (not sure). But if there is any restriction, then didn’t allow such columns to be ‘pre’ calculated or selectable in the form.
Along these lines, any conditional formatting from the sheet (for input or calculated columns) could also be allowed to flow through to the pre-submitted fiom.
It would be great if you were able to use a column formula column in a form. For example, I have an IF statement that defaults a cell value to "N/A" if a condition is met in the previous column. That column is used in document mapping to show the end viewer of the PDF that the cell was not applicable.
I'm creating a system for tracking CAD requests in an R&D department. One of the features of the system is that it tracks the average duration by task type dynamically. As each task is marked complete, the calculations happen automatically.
I'm using a form for request intake. It would be nice to have the form show the average duration for a specific task once the user selects the type of task they are requesting. The form also has a field for the date required. I'm instructing users to consider the average duration when the select this date so that it is realistic. At present, I have the metrics displayed on the dashboard with a big note next to the widget that takes them to the submission form.
If they forget the number or don't bother to look, they will have to go back to the dashboard and then return to the form to be able to fill it out properly.
I have a workflow with nearly 40 automations, half of which are email-based requests for updates with various sets of triggers. While I know the automations work, due to months of testing, when our system went live to the institution, I became very worried that the automations wouldn't run and I'd have no idea whether or…
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:…
I am proposing bringing a bit of pizzazz to Smartsheet by having celebratory animations for certain criteria. Think Joyful Animations in Outlook! My team was hoping to have some sort of confetti pop/gif/image when we close out a project or hit a milestone. Bonus points if it is configurable like the automations are.
