Since SmartSheet doesn't seem to have a roundup function, can anyone help me to calculate the annual quarter from a coresponding date?
in excel i would use something like:
=roundup(month(cell where my date is)/3,0)
=(INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3))

Craig,
thanks for getting back to me, I really appreciate your repsonse. Your formula is working great!
Much appreciated!
Hi Craig,
Just wondering if you have any suggestion to how I can return a value such as Q3-2018; in excel I would use a formula such as this:
="Q"&ROUNDUP(MONTH(A1)/3,0)&"-"&YEAR(A1)
Thanks,Jessica
="Q" + (INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3)) + "-" + YEAR(DATEREF)
should do it.
This throws an error if DATEREF is blank, so
=IFERROR("Q" + (INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3)) + "-" + YEAR(DATEREF),"")
will return blank in that case.
Thanks for this!
Do you know if it would be possible to return a value such as "JFM-18"?
JFM to stand for Jan Feb March, AMJ=Apr May June, etc, rather than saying Q1, Q2.
Thanks,
Jessica
You'll need to change this portion
(INT((MONTH([Column2]1) + 2) / 3))
of the formula either a NestedIF or a LOOKUP functionality.
If this were a requirement for a customer, I would put the whole thing in a X-Sheet reference and the formula on another sheet.
Hey Craig!
I've tried a few of your many solutions for quarter formulas, but none of them seem to work on my smartsheets. Could there be something else I can do?
Ultimately, I am looking for a formula that will translate a date from a different column to a quarter number.
Thanks!
Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
