I need to keep accurate documentation of how long my deliveries take (down to the minute) I normally do this in spreadsheets by having the column formatted as a time. I cannot see that option in the formatting list. Am I blind or is it not there?
Hi Tash,
Unfortunately, Smartsheet doesn't have a Time specific column just yet, but it's coming.
A workaround could be to use a dropdown list, and it's also possible to set up a solution where you can select the start time and end time to calculate the total time.
Another option could be a time measuring add-ons/plugin that you can use together with Google Chrome.
Can you describe your process in more detail so that I can maybe give you a better recommendation?
Have a fantastic weekend!

Is this still not an option?

I had to add a lot of helper columns to make a workaround. My first column is the start timestamp. My next 3 helper columns break down the hour and minutes then convert them to decimal. I do the same thing with my end timestamp. Then I do the calculation. I also have to reconvert it to minutes for another project. Seems like a lot of work, but once it's done, it's done. It's definitely ugly, but it does the trick until SmartSheet can figure out how to make it a standard function. Hope it helps.

Hi everyone, I’m running into an issue with one of my sheets and was hoping to see if anyone else has experienced this. Here’s the setup: I have a sheet where, when I check a box, the row moves to a “Completed” sheet. In my Total column, I use a formula that sums a group of cells tied together via a parent/child…
Is anyone having trouble with smarthsheet over the past several days? Every time I go into a form to edit it, the cursor jumps fields after each character is typed. It is so frustrating. In some cases the cursor gets frozen in a field and jumps back and forth between two fields and freezes the whole system. I have yet to…
I want to move a sheet on my workspace to another folder but I am not getting the option to do so. I am the owner of the workspace, the sheet and the folder.
