I have a drop down box containing staff member names, when selected I want it displayed automatically in the "Assigned to" column our company name. I have searched help but so far no luck, can someone assist? cheers.

Hi Jason,

I'm not sure what you want to accomplish. Can you explain a little more in detail what you want to do?

Hi Andree,

We (>8 users) use Smartsheet to track construction jobs Australia wide using multiple crews however we also have 8 members of our own. What I’m looking for would be a VLOOKUP?. If I select one of our members in a drop down column I’ve created I want in another column, in our case “Crew Allocated” our business name to automatically fill.

The idea behind this is that in a new sheet (yet to be created) I will have only these jobs displayed for another manager, I’m a new user with limited experience.

Hi, again Jason,

Assigned = Your team

Joe

Moe

Jen

Niki

Crew Allocated = Internal or external crews (Dropdown list)

Company Name

Crew 1 (External)

Crew 2 (External)

Crew 3 (External)

Crew 4 (External)

Formula in Crew Allocated

=IF(Assigned1 = "Joe"; "Company Name"; IF(Assigned1 = "Moe"; "Company Name"; IF(Assigned1 = "Jen"; "Company Name"; "Crew 1 (External)")))

Would this work for you?

I hope this helps you!

Thanks Andree, have not had a chance to try but by the look of it, it's what I'm looking for. Will let you know. Hope I can call on you again.

Regards

Jason.

None of my forms are in English so the message is…
