Hi Smartsheet,
One of our project managers is using a Smartsheet Form for an exam. We want to record the time the student opens the form so we can tell how many minutes they have spent to answer the exam. We want that time to be recorded on the row in the sheet. Thanks!

Hi, I hope you're well and safe! Do you have access to Dynamic View? You could have the first step being that they "Start" the process. Make sense? Would that work/help? I hope that helps!

Hi Andree,
The students are just opening the Form on their computer, we did not give each student a dynamic view of their own.
We would prefer a computer timestamp that would be too difficult to fake, it's a certification exam and we are trying our best to prevent any chance of user error.
In the Dynamic View would they just be recording the time they started the exam, or am I misunderstanding your advice?
Thanks! 😊
Happy to help! You would "Probably" only need one Dynamic View, and the first step to get access to the form would be to check a box or similar, save, and that would register the time and then show the form to the student.
Make sense?

Thanks, that is an interesting idea. I will share that with my PM and see if that will work.

As one of the system admins, it is absurd to me that I cannot view or have access to all of the items created in my organization. We have over 11,000 reports, sheets, and dashboards and I can't see them. I have no visibility to if people are using our plan for their own personal use, or what kind of work is going on unless…
I noticed this the other day and tested Ctrl + M – it does not work. I submit ticket to Smartsheet support – they told me that’s expected behavior because it’s not currently available even though it still shows as keyboard shortcut in the menu🙄 and told me to submit new product idea. Please add this keyboard shortcut to…
Summary of Issue All team members work a standard 7.5‑hour day, but only a portion of that day is allocated for project work (e.g., 25%, 50%, etc.). In Resource Management, however, the system currently interprets allocations as a percentage of the full 7.5 hours, instead of the project‑eligible portion of a person’s day.…
