Add copied row as a child row

noshiro

I have a row being copied via "Manage References" using INDEX MATCH from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2. If this row matches the project number and has a ".0" indicating added task to the same project, I want this row to be copied over as a child to the Parent row in Sheet 2. Currently it just lists it as a new row.

Below is the INDEX MATCH to sheet 2. I'm assuming it would be two formulas in one, but I couldn't make it work.

=INDEX({Data - Column2}, MATCH([Project ID]@row, {Data - Project ID}, 0))

Hello @noshiro

There is currently no built-in feature to automatically sort rows with a hierarchy. With this being said, when a new row comes you should manually move rows on the correct parent rows.

You can also check this community thread that might be possible through API:
