Is there are way to track the amount of time each stage of development takes?
What formula would I use and then, what chart?
Hi Michelle,
Yes, there is. It depends on how your solution is setup. Can you share the solution or upload some screenshots?
I hope this helps you!

Keep in mind... Tracking time in Smartsheet only works for days. Smartsheet cannot handle actual times (hours/minutes) without rather convoluted workarounds.
@Paul Newcome Is this still the case and l need a convoluted workaround to get how much time a generator was running?
Trying to calculate how many hours a generator run for, and for the cell to show as empty when there's no data in the cells. After reading a lot of posts came up with a formula but l can't figure out how to remove the "#INVALID VALUE" error, tried wrapping the formula in a "IF ERROR" but did not work.
This is my current formula, but there has to be something simpler and that allows for a cell to show as blank if both feeding cells are blank:
=VALUE(LEFT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Started]@row) - 1))) - VALUE(LEFT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) + (VALUE(RIGHT([Generator #2 Time Started]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) - VALUE(RIGHT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) / 60)

Thanks!
@Silvia Rangel That is correct. Smartsheet does not yet have built in time calculations. I will include a link at the bottom of this post to a thread that has numerous time based solutions in it.
As for the IFERROR, it should wrap around the entire formula like so...
=IFERROR(VALUE(LEFT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Started]@row) - 1))) - VALUE(LEFT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) + (VALUE(RIGHT([Generator #2 Time Started]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) - VALUE(RIGHT([Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row, (FIND(":", [Generator #2 Time Stopped]@row) - 1))) / 60), "")
@Paul Newcome Thanks! So, l realized l had a space between the end of the formula and the coma ( 60) , "") and this was giving me the error... Also, l tried the formulas in your ime based solutions post but none worked for what l am looking to do, at least for this sheet, as they worked for others! ☺

@Silvia Rangel Glad you got that figured out. Are you still needing an overall formula? I would imagine a negative result for run time is not exactly accurate.
Hi, I am trying to use a formula to tick a box in Sheet 1 if the following conditions are true: The email at row (Text Contact) in Sheet 1 matches the Email in the deployment sheet (Email Deployment) and the Event in the deployment sheet (Event Deployment) is equal to "Event Name". The event column in the deployment sheet…
I am working on a formula to pull the row data from column "A", based on the criteria for row "B" and "C". The criteria is to look for the highest value in Column "B" and the same row "is not blank" in Column "C". In short index the row in column A, with the highest value in column B, that is also not blank in column C. I…
I am trying to write a formula that says the if the end date is before today that it selects the "Late" option out of the drop down in Status. I got most of the way there but keep getting an error. HELP
