Hi Craig,
It sounds like you're looking to reference all children and children's children all in one formula.
As you may know, the best way to do this currently is to add SUM(CHILDREN()) or COUNT(CHILDREN()) in each parent row and then SUM or COUNT the CHILDREN in the parent-most row (Ancestor 0).
I typically try to lock these sorts of parent rows to prevent people from editing them. That way I can chase down any admins that may have inadvertently broken my sheet.
Yes, Shaine, I am.
The use case where I ran into it was JOIN(COLLECT()), which quickly clutters up the Sheet with useless cells. At least for COUNT or SUM, each level has meaning and usefulness.
I am trying to populate a column from Sheet A into Sheet B and Sheet C. My Lookup column for Sheet A is formatted as such so there is a ' in front to account for ones that have a leading 0 and some do not. Each ID should be 6 digits long. I made a helper column looking at this Dealer ID column to try and get rid of that…
am I able to separate this into multiple rows? in a new sheet? Desired Result -
I would like to parse out this data by creating a listing with a row for each person, for each project they appear on, for each month. I think this would only give me the groupings anyways, but this doesnt seem to even get me started - it popped up then people have disappeared.
