Greetings,
I have the start day and the duration. Is it possible to calculate the end date using these two entitites such that only working days are included (only monday through friday and not the weekends)?
Thank you

WORKDAY()
WORKDAY(date, num_days, [holidays])

Hmmm. You might also try turning on dependencies. It will set up a start time and a finish time column if you don't already have one and calculate the finish time for you. When you edit the start date or the duration, the end date will calculate for you automatically.
That might be a better way of doing it rather than using custom formulas.
Another added benefit of turning on dependencies is that you can also make the end of one task determine the beginning of the next one.
Thank you very much.
It worked!
Happy to help!

I had data deleted from a column in a tracking sheet. (2K+ rows) I pulled a snapshot from the activity log and I want to pull back the data from just the one column. I was told the right process was under File>Import>Update Rows, but I don't have that option under import. Is there another way to do this?
I am receiving errorCode: 48 on one of my sheets that is in a Workspace. All other sheets can be accessed except for the most important one. I have created 2 cases for this with no response from Smartsheet: Case# 08756481 Case# 08759594
