Report Building Criteria

Claybowen

I am trying to build reports that segment my data into 5 different reports. One for each year 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. 

When I select the GLY (Go Live Year) with any on the aforementioned years, my reports come back blank. However, when I select a different criteria and then add the GLY as an additional column, the GLY will appear. 

Why will Smartsheet not recognize my Go Live Year criteria in the report?

Hi Clay,

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)

Have a fantastic weekend!

Hello Andre, 

Thanks for your reply. 

Sure, I'll do my best to be as detailed as possible. 

In one of my sheets, I have a column that is names GLY. In this column, there are a total of five different calendar years that I have placed within column based on when job postings are going live. 

When I attempt to build a report and select the "what" criteria with any one of the years that are currently present within the column, the report fails to recognize the year as a valid criteria and my report comes back blank every time.

Thanks for your help in this.

Happy to help!

That sounds strange!

Can you share the sheet/report with me or some screenshots and I'd be happy to take a look!
