I have been using Smartsheet now for about 2 months. While I love it for so many reasons, I am frustrated too. I love being able to run the reports, there are so many great filters......why don't they just allow a function to add totals to the reports. Hence, when management asks me to report the sales numbers based on "criteria" they want totals, not a list of stuff.
It seems counter-intuitive to have to export to excel and run formulas and pivot tables or create summary tabs and unnecessary columns for special totals that mess up my tabular data.
I understand it is a database view but even in MS dynamics I could run a view total and do graphs from the view.
I have very basic data (but want the collaboration of smartsheet) and I would love to be able to run reports - then grab the totals the reports to Dashboard - It seems I have to recreate the wheel.
Does anyone else feel the same way?
