Hello,I would like my Children Cells to fetch their value from the Parent cell.Is it possible?Will it be possible soon?NB - I do not want to fetch the value from the "cell reference" of the parent ("=[Related Invoice]1 ")
I love this idea, Julien! I agree it would be useful to have a PARENT() function. This does not exist yet in the app but I will add your vote for this to our enhancement request list.
Julien,
Here's my work-around
The formula in the ParentRow determine if the row is a parent or has no children.
The formula in the GetParentValue will use the value from the Value column if it finds a parent, otherwise get the value from the row above.
Depending on how you want to lay out the data, I have also just put the formula in the Value field and overwrite it for the Parent rows.
A gotchas:
- Formula expects to start on Row 2 - but one could just deleted that part of the formula for the top row if necessary.
I use the formula in the ParentRow a lot for conditional formatting of header rows.
Hope this helps.
