Still learning reports. If I create a rollup report, can viewers/users of that report edit it and have it update the underlying sheet?
Hi Leslie,
Yes, they can if they have the right access.

By ' the right access', Andrée means the user must have access to the underlying sheets.
They need to be at least a Viewer to see the data and Editor to change the data ON EACH SHEET.
If a Report rolls up 5 Sheets and the user has only access to 2 of them, then their Report will look different than a user that has access to all of them.

Andree,
Are you able to edit a sheet summary report and have it modify the sheet summary that it is referencing? if so what do you need to do to make this work correctly?
Thanks,
Phil
Hi @Phil Cooper
I hope you're well and safe!
Yes. If you right-click on the row and select the Row Action option, and then Edit, you can change the values that aren't looked at or a formula.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Hi @Andrée Starå
Can someone, as a viewer of the source sheet, edit the report if they are the editor to the report?
Hi @Linh Nguyen
Unfortunately, it's not possible now because they need to have at least editor rights to the sheet, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
There might be a possible workaround.
Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)
What Smartsheet plan do you have?
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
Hello,
When a Report is shared, who can edit the Columns selections of the report?
The owner? Admin? Editor w/ share? Editor w/o share?
Hi @fcaron@freewiretech.com
Have a look at this excellent help article for all the details.
Did that work/help?

Thank you.
BTW: I never add an email that someone had replied to my question above. Not even in my Spam...
A clarification should be made to the Report section:
A Report located in Workspace A can be made from a sheet host into another Workspace B we wish not to share. This Report will look empty to anyone only member to Workspace A.
A Report made for A from B can be useful to spin collaboration from my organization B and involving external organization A. Imagine this scheme could be also spread out by creating Report to organization C, D, E, etc from the sheet in B, etc. Author's name of modifications made by A, C, D, etc wouldn't be disclosed for each other, of course, but my organization B would.

So I am new to Smart Sheets but need to know how I create a Folder under the sheets section as shown by someone who was managing this before? Please if possible reply to kirk@ship-sts.com since I am taking over this Smartsheet but allowing the current owner to transition before I update credentials.
I came back from vacation to find that about 20 columns, with headers but no data, have mysteriously added themselves to my Smartsheet. I created this version by using an older sheet as a template 3 years ago and streamlined by deleting a lot of excessive information tracking columns. And I use some hidden columns, so…
When a user submits our form they can select the option to get a copy of their responses. The email they receive has some major formatting issues that need to be resolved - specifically our institution's logo is enormous in the email. Where can I edit the template for people who have elected to get a copy of their…
