Suggestions? How to manage/track the Smartsheet workspaces and sheets?
Our SS environment is growing rapidly. Any suggestions or tips when it comes to managing all the sheets. I'm thinking about building a sheet registration Smartsheet that captures who reuested the sheet, when, purpose, department, owner.....etc....
Has anyone done anything like this in the past?
Thanks
Jim

Jim,
A System Admin can download the Sheet Access Report (via User Management).
While it lists all sheets by who has access to them, what I use it for (or did so in the past) is to get a list of all the sheets.
Unfortunately, it does not list the structure (workspace/folder) but it is a start.
This will also tell you who owns each sheet.
It is very easy to let the cleanup duties slide (I am constantly fighting this battle until I start running out of sheets again).
Another thing I do is have a single sheet for each project / client that describes what the sheets/templates/report are intended to do, why they are there, and if they are likely to be something that will be temporary.
I hope this helps.
Craig
