Hello!
I have several projects with many rows of information per project on one master sheet. I use conditional formatting to seperate/identify projects by colour. That colour coding applies to both grid and calendar view nicely. BUT I would like to combine a project code and task name in calendar view so I do not have to type the project code in every row of project. (attached is a sample). Am I making this too complicated?! Is there no join formula that can join the project code + the task name and show both in calendar view? Thanks!
Hello,
You can accomplish this by using the JOIN function. If you would like both the code and task name to appear in calendar view, you'll want to insert the formula in the Primary Column since each bar in the calendar will display the text from the Primary Column. You're formula would look something like this:
=JOIN(Code@row:[Task name]@row, " - ")
If needed, more information on JOIN and @row can be found in our help articles:
Also the JOIN function combines a range of cells. Because of this, the columns containing the code and the task name must be next to each other.
Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
