Resource Allocation – Multiple Task owners in one Task

SBash

Hi,

How can I allocate the resources in single task when I have multiple task owners or multiple Task managers?

How can i allocate the hours based on individual manager?

Best Regards

Hi Saqib,

To use Resource Allocation for multiple people for one task you'd need to have the task on multiple rows.

Would that work?

Have a fantastic week!

We need this functionality - I have tasks in my plan that involve more than one resource, for instance, a meeting. If I have a kickoff meeting, I want to show who has to take time to attend that meeting. My plan is already 900+ lines, I would be challenged to repeat a task 5-6 times just to account for the time everyone takes to do that task.

I would like Smartsheet to adjust duration (not work) when I add a second or third resource to the one task. This would save so much time.

I understand if I add more than one resource to a task, it negates tracking time at all.

Thank you

I agree with Mary, this would be a valuable feature and something that most other scheduling tools offer (e.g. MS Project). It would be necessary however to allow for the effort (i.e. hours) of each stakeholder to be adjustable. The sum total could then be shown in the main schedule view.

Restore multiple cell changes from Snapshot
Today a team member accidentally changed several rows by either deleting the data or the row itself. Do I download a snapshot of each one to restore? Some of them didn't seem to be too helpful. What is the protocol for restoring this information? I've only done this before with the help of a representative and it was…
Why are my answers not showing up when a document is generated?
I have my Smartsheet set to generate a document when a form is filled out. The document is a fillable PDF and when the document generates not all of the answers populate on the generated PDF. I have tried making the PDF again from scratch, I have tried copying and pasting the fields so I know they're the exact same…
