Does anyone know if you can import a Excel spreadsheet into SmartSheet with embedded formulas and formulas linked to other sheets in the same Excel file without having to re-create the formula within SmartSheet?
Hi,
Unfortunately, you can only import one tab on the Excel spreadsheet each time.
I hope this helps you!

Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your response. That is what I gathered and I just wanted to make sure nothing has changed. The other question I do have is when I import any Excel sheet with existing formulas already created they do not import. I have to re-create each formula for each cell after I import into SmartSheet. Is there a way around this issue without having to re-create each formula once the data is imported into SmartSheet? Thanking you in advance.
Happy to help!
The formulas should get imported (if you choose to), but it might be that there's an issue at the moment. I'd recommend contacting the Smartsheet Support Team also.
Some Excel formulas don't have matches and don't import (at least, last time I checked).
In Excel, you can turn off formula calculation that allows you to edit them. I used to replace "=" with "!=" and then import that way, as it is no longer a formula, just text.

I want to push the latest status log sheet entry to the dashboard. I have added working columns for the last date, recent value (0 or 1) and recent status (text field). The recent columns are blank except for the most recent data rows (that part of the sheet is working). I have a project metric sheet template across topics…
Hi - I am trying to figure out how to create a SUM of the Total Project Time aligned to each PM for all of their projects. On my master sheet I have the Resource Type, Resource Name, and a Helper Column for Time. The Helper Time is an estimated allotted time based on the timeframe of the project. Example: <3 months = 25…
I have a report where I need a formula to figure out time duration. For example, employee starts at 8:00 am and ends at 9:00 am, I need the next column to tell me 1.00 to indicate he worked 1 hour. I will be using military time throughout this sheet.
