Adding %Complete back to smartsheet

andrew.r.bridges45571

I accidentally deleted the %complete column in my smartsheet. How do I insert it back into the project? I don't see a quick way of doing this.

Hi Andrew,

While it won't bring back any of the data you had in the column, you can simply add a new % Complete column, navigate to the Project Settings window (via the gear icon in the top right) and then selecting the column you just created from the dropdown list under % Complete column.

Kind regards,

Hi Andrew and Chris,

 

I also wanted to let you know that you can always write into Support and ask for a checkpoint of your sheet; an agent will be glad to send you this in Excel format and it should have data that you can copy and paste back into your sheet.

Please note that the checkpoints we have available only contain the grid data and Comments (on the second page of the workbook) and won't be as comprehensive as any backups that you make as your backups will also include a compressed file of attachments. If you haven't yet started performing backups, I recommend doing so to assist in case of future accidental changes or deletions. If needed, instructions for this are available in our help article on Backing up your data (http://help.smartsheet.com/customer/portal/articles/506499-backing-up-your-data)

I would also highly recommend setting up some periodic recurring backups via the steps at our Help Center here.

Kind regards,

Alison
