Resource Management - Dynamic Report workaround

Marisha90

We are looking for a possible workaround to dynamic reporting , and were suggested resource management as a possible solution/

Has anyone used resource management as a replacement for a dynamic reporting.

I am interested to hear of any possible workarounds that would save us some dynamic reports.

From what I understand we only get 50 dynamic reports per blueprint, so I was hoping someone has experience in this.

Not sure if this is best practice or possible, and resource management would be an add on.

Yes, you're right—Smartsheet Control Center currently enforces a 

The hard limit is 50 dynamic scope reports (DSRs) per blueprint, which can be quite restrictive for organizations that are managing large portfolios.

• RM is not a full replacement for dynamic reports. It’s best used for resourcing and capacity planning, not detailed project tracking or custom reporting.

Other Workarounds to Consider

• Rollup Sheets + Dashboards:
  • Use summary rollup sheets to aggregate key data across projects.
  • Display filtered views in dashboards instead of separate reports.
• Segmented Blueprints:
  • Split your blueprint into smaller ones by department or region to get additional DSR allocations.
• Portfolio WorkApps:
  • If you're using Portfolio WorkApps, you can create custom roles and pages that simulate report views without using DSRs.
