I wrote a function for my budget, setting limit and i want it to return text either True or false. but it kept on returning "INVALID COLUMN VALUE"
(=SUM(A3:A10)<=(0.7*D6)

This post which describes invalid value might make sense.
Are you trying to sum data only if it is less than or equal to 0.7*D6? If so, you should look at SUMIFS, to designate criterion for summing the range based on the criterion. https://help.smartsheet.com/function/sumifs
Also, you should be aware that Smartsheet does not refer to columns as letters like in Excel or GoogleSheets. You should use the column names and include brackets if the column title has white space or ends in a numeral.

=SUMIF([Column Name]3:[Column Name]10, <= (0.7*[Other Column Name]6))
Kind regards,

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted.

Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all.

We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
