Hi all ,
I would like to know , when I set a an alert so that an action must be triggered when reaching a certain date , at what time the action is actually triggered ? 00:01 ?
Thanks in advance .
Hi Alain,
If I understand you correctly, it will run at the time that you select from the list when you set up the Automation.
Have a fantastic weekend!

Hi ANDREE ,
Look at this formula : " IF([Due Date]1 = TODAY() + 3; 1; 0) " .
The formula is inside a check box cell ( column ) . As you can see , there is no time .
So my question is : " If the condition is met , at what time the cell concerned will turn checked ? " .
I hope it's clearer to you now .
Thanks .
It depends on what you've set the setting, Run workflow to. If it's when triggered, it will send almost immediately.
Make sense?
Andrée
Because you are using the TODAY() function, you will need to activate the sheet either by opening it or having a new form entry for the TODAY() function to update to today's date. As soon as the sheet is opened, the TODAY function will update and the box will change to checked.
It will register to run your workflow as soon as it is saved after the box has become checked. I can't remember the exact times, but I believe it usually takes no more than 15 minutes for the alert to be sent. I personally usually get it much faster than that, but I believe that's the amount of time Smartsheet has referenced in documentation.
Are you telling me that I have to define some settings ? How ?
Hi PAUL ,
Noted .
Thank you .
Happy to help!
I see now that I've misinterpreted your questions.
You want to know at what time the checkbox would get checked right?
Andrée
I too misinterpreted. To answer the question of "What time will the box be checked?"...
Because you are using the TODAY() function, you will need to activate the sheet either by opening it or having a new form entry for the TODAY() function to update to today's date. As soon as the sheet is opened, the TODAY function will update and the box will change to checked. Once the sheet is saved, the system will recognize the box as checked and run any workflows accordingly.
Hi everyone, in several of my Details Views for multiple Dynamic Views, text fields and/or checkboxes that are configured in the Dynamic View settings are not appearing in the Detailed View. Is anyone else seeing this today? I've not updated any of my configurations lately and don't know how to explain this! Thanks!
The timeline widget has a toggle: Set the default hierarchy state. I am turning on "expand lanes by default." It seems regardless if I turn this "on", save, sign out, and sign back in, it automatically changes back to "off" when I log out. I have tried clearing my browser cache.
Can someone tell me how to get rid of the 120.0% max on this graph? It is always going total 100% and never any more, so I would like to use more of the space for graph display purposes. I even tried reducing it so that the largest value was 99.999%, thinking maybe being exactly 100 would cause the next "level" to…
