Hello,
Is there anyway to have a project task list that is updated from multiple project task list sheet? We are looking to have a master roll up of the Project Milestones without including all the tasks on 1 task list.
Thank you
Would a report do what you're after? You could include all your project sheets and set criteria in the report to specify only rows with a 0 duration.
This is by far the simplest way to achieve this.

You aren't the only one with this problem. That was with a single search on google. In fact I asked the same question yesterday hoping someone had a new response. The two answers right now are cell linking which takes a huge amount of time and is extremely inefficient, and building a report which takes away the ability to perform any calculations on the data you are pulling from different sheets.
There is a 3rd option, but it's relatively expensive (we're talking 10s of thousands):

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…
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.
