Hi there, i would like to start an activity 10 days before either activity A OR activity B starts. How should i define the predecessor? BR Marco
its based off of row numbers. So if A was on row 1 and B was on row 2 you would put
1-10,2-10
exactly like that inside of the predecessors column
Hi Marco,
You can have the same predecessor for more than one task, however there currently isn't a way to define an OR criteria. Please feel free to submit a Product Enhancement Request to let our Product team know that you'd like to have this functionality in Smartsheet.
To represent a period of inactivity or overlap between the predecessor and dependent, you can use lag time. More information on this can be found here: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/765727-enabling-dependencies-using-predecessors

So “Activity C” is scheduled to start on April 20. Maybe you have an idea how to solve this problem. Thanks a lot in advance! Marco

It isn't all the time, just sometimes and there does not seem to be a pattern on which ones…
Have any of you created a Smartsheet that would show the savings for a project by the month? In other words, if I saved $1200 annually and the project ended in say March, then the savings would go $120 per month, Mar 2025-Feb 2026. I have done it on Excel sheets manually, but I think there should be a way to do it with…
Hello team! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. I am trying to set up an automation that will send an email reminder one time when Next Update Date = 60 days, then another automation at 30d, etc. The key is I only want it to send the reminder one time when Next Update threshold is reached. Is this possible?…
