Good afternoon,
New to smartsheet,
When I set up my sheets shoudl I be setting up the "metrics" that I want to capture on the top of the sheet to easily transfer to a dashboard/widget?
Hi,
There are many ways to set it up and which one would work best for depends on your preference and specific use case.
A common method is as you mention placing the metrics in the top section of the sheet. Another way could be to collect everything on another specific metric sheet.
Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s) or some screenshots? That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic weekend!

Have a fantastic day!

This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
I have a workspace that I created with two subfolders. A user needs to have access to only one of them but when I have that folder selected, I can only share the entire workspace with them. Is there a secret way that I can share the parent folder and ensure that any new files created will be shared with the same people? I…
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports. The system does not allow me to choose a folder, and consequently a sheet to create a row report and suggests an upgrade to Business or Enterprise. I'm quite new to Smartsheet and feel a bit disappointed with this limitation, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Alberto
