I want to create a formula in a cell that subtracts a certain number of days from another cell that is linked to another persons Smartsheet. How would I do that? My efforts have failed.
Hi there,
This is pretty simple. After you have linked the cell... you can use simple math to adjust the days. For instance. If you have a linked cell in [Column2] row 3 and want to add 10 days to it. In a new column (set up as a date column) and row, use the following formula. Do note that because you are creating a new date you need to use the Date Column type to make that happen.
=[Column2]3 + 10
If you want it to be 10 days before that date use this formula
=[Column2]3 - 10
If you want it to be 10 working days after the linked cell date and you have set up your working days in your account settings.
=Workday([Column2]3,10)
Or 10 days before.
=Workday([Column2]3,-10)
Hope that helps!
Hello, I have 2 date columns. I put a test sheet together for a visual reference. The Date 2 column needs a formula to calculate whichever date 39-45 days out is a Friday. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is there a way to display for one specific columns cell history display in another column for calculation purpose? I wanted to count each stage from one specific column by getting cell history in separate column to calculate duration. Thank you!
I want to use a list of account numbers in one sheet for a dropdown in another sheet using Table View. When I select the sheet and column in the dropdown menu, it shows the correct column but is dropping zeros. I have provided a screenshot of the reference column and then what appears in the drop down. Any ideas?
