Hi All,
I wonder if there is a way to make the Day initals (i.e. Sat, Sun, Mon...etc) show up next to the date in smartsheets?

Hi,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment to get in the same cell, but it's a great idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
As a workaround, you could add a column and have it show there.
Would that work?
Have a fantastic day!

It also depends on how the dates are entered. If manually, Andree's suggestion will work. If you are using a formula, you could add to it, but it would then render the date useless for future calculations.
I just realized that you could change the format of the date and at least include the name of the month or day.
Duh! The new date formats. There is one that works exactly as the poster describes... Ugh.
Exactly, Duh is the word!
Column you want the Initials =IF(WD1 = 1, "Sun", IF(WD1 = 2, "Mon", IF(WD1 = 3, "Tues", IF(WD1 = 4, "Wedy", IF(WD1 = 5, "Thu", IF(WD1 = 6, "Fri", IF(WD1 = 7, "Saturday", "")))))))
Helper Column WD =WEEKDAY([Date]1)
DATE Column

You could also combine your two columns into 1 to save a little space if needed...
=IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 1, "Sun", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 2, "Mon", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 3, "Tues", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 4, "Wedy", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 5, "Thu", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 6, "Fri", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 7, "Saturday", "")))))))
Just use the WEEKDAY function directly in your nested IF's.
Wow, awesome Paul! Thanks!
Hi there! Our Account Manager today informed us that users would need to be paid members to receive and complete Update Requests going forward. I can't imagine that Form users would need to be members, but I don't know how that differs from Update Requests, since neither requires access to the underlying sheet. Is it…
