Columns sorting in a New Report

Hi,

I'm to create a report from a sheet which has many colums.

In the report builder, it seems I have to select them one by one, and the column list is sorted alphabetically, so if I am to present them in the same order than the sheet, I have to find them in the list one by one.

Please, is there a way to create all this columns in the same order than the original sheet ?

I didn't find any post in the community about that

Thank you for answer !

Hi Franck,

You can add them all and then move them and delete the ones that you don't need, or you could choose which you want to add and then sort them.

I hope this helps you!

Best,

To expand on what Andree said... To rearrange the columns after they have already been selected, you can simply click and drag the column headers to move them around. You will see a solid black bar that will show you where the column will be dropped once you let go of the mouse button.

Please submit an enhancement request:

I may have written a request to create a Report directly from the Sheet, which would be helpful in this situation.

Restore multiple cell changes from Snapshot
Today a team member accidentally changed several rows by either deleting the data or the row itself. Do I download a snapshot of each one to restore? Some of them didn't seem to be too helpful.

Why are my answers not showing up when a document is generated?
I have my Smartsheet set to generate a document when a form is filled out. The document is a fillable PDF and when the document generates not all of the answers populate on the generated PDF.
