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.
Hello, I am looking for a fairly complicated formula (I think). I have two sheets: 1) IW POD and 2) Root Bushing Repair Tracker on sheet 2, I have a column named "Actual Execution Hours" In that column, on sheet 2, I need to sum the hours on sheet 1 in column "Total Actual Hours" IF these two columns match on both sheets -…
I've always struggled with calculating total count by Month; i can do it for every else but when you throw in dates, it throws me right off. Essentially what i am trying to do is calculate on another sheet the amount of travel done within the month of March This is the formula i am using, but it comes back with 0…
Hi Community, I have a sheet that contains, among others, columns titled "Priority" and "Contract ID". Multiple rows can have the same Contract ID and the same Priority. Priority values are 1-2-3 and restricted to dropdown list values only. To collect the number of unique Contract IDs that are Priority "1", I have this…
