Hi everyone
I was wondering if there is a way to set up an alert when a sheet is approaching the limit of entries.

Hi Noemi,
Yes, you could add an auto numbering column and have an alert triggered when it reaches a specified number.
Would that work?
Have a fantastic week!

That won't work a second time though, as after she deletes the rows it will continue to count up from where it left off. It would be better to set aside a cell for the math
=if(countif(A:A,isblank(@cell)) + count(A:A)>4900,1,0)
That gives you 100 submissions before it maxes so you can go in and work on it without the chance of losing data. Just set an alert on the cell for when it changes to 1.
You're correct!
Depending on the need your method might be better, but with the autonumber column, the count could be reset if needed.

I am trying to use the automation template in a work plan sheet, where when I change the project status column to "completed" the "% completed" changes to 100% on the row. I have even tried to reverse it, and say when % completed = 100% change project status to Completed. This seems like a very simple ask, and is a baked…
