Hi!
Could you add the ability to enter in elapsed days (non-working days) into the predecessor field? This would be similar to the e#d in duration. Thank you!!
Kind regards,
Helena

Predecessor Field Enhancement to Support Elapsed Days. There is a critical need for Smartsheet to incorporate the ability to link from working days to elapsed days within the Predecessor Field. This enhancement is not just a convenience but a necessity for comprehensive project management.
The integration of elapsed days with predecessors is a feature that has seen consistent demand over the years. Its absence significantly hampers our ability to accurately track project timelines, especially in our industry where work progresses continuously across both working days and weekends and holidays.
Please seriously consider the long-term benefits and user satisfaction that this enhancement will bring.

Please add this feature! It would be incredibly helpful!
+1 for this feature request, very important feature.
Extremely important feature! There are many threads with this topic, but this seems most recent so hoping I can bump it here.
My constant headache is that I manage many tech projects with weekend migrations - but migrations always have go/no-go dependencies, so I want to keep my predecessors in place in case anything shifts upstream.
If a row has no dependencies, using elapsed time to override non-working days works just fine. But if the row has a predecessor, it's impossible to force the START date to begin on a non-working day.
PLEASE FIX THIS!!
In the Community discussions I see 4 years of comments on multiple threads asking to add the use of elapsed time in predecessors - why hasn't this been implemented yet? Even when both the predecessor & the active task both have a elapsed time Duration, it still calculates the lag time in working days. So frustrating when my project is based on dependencies between different groups that have different working hours.
The idea is to be able to schedule a task with lag or delay elapsed days. Eg. 110FS+ e30d.
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…
Our consistent experience is that Smartsheet objects can take anywhere from 5-20 seconds to load. This feels extremely slow when you're actively facilitating a call and working between sheets, waiting for it to load. Other solutions in the industry have extremely fast, sub-5-second load times. I would request the product…
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:…
