I have groups and sub-groups (I hope I'm using the right terminology, I have 8-rows indented under another row) and only the first four rows are totaling. The calculation is for Duration and I am using days and hours.
Hello bhardin,
Regarding the terminology, I believe the terms you are looking for are Parent Rows and Child Rows. Information about using Hierarchy can be found here:
Regarding the calculation issue, it appears that you've enabled Dependencies, however the calculation only appears to be calculating about two hours rather than eight hours. Have you entered predecessors in your Predecessors column? If predecessors have not been entered, Smartsheet will assume that your tasks are being worked on simultaneously rather than in sequence.

To resolve your specific issue, in your Predecessors column starting with row 11, try entering the previous row as the predecessor to the current row. More information on this below:

I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports. The system does not allow me to choose a folder, and consequently a sheet to create a row report and suggests an upgrade to Business or Enterprise. I'm quite new to Smartsheet and feel a bit disappointed with this limitation, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Alberto
I have multiple items that each have their own statuses and that roll up to "workstreams" or swimlanes. On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
