Alerts

Hi,

I am new to Smartsheet - early indication is it is an excellent piece of software and will help me enormously.

I just cant seem to find a way of alerting the assigned to person (of the following task) once the previous task has been marked as complete. I would have thought this was quite a common task but cannot see how to do it, probably being silly.

Appreciate your help.

Hi David,

This will depend on how your sheet is set up. It sounds like the simplest option might be to create a Contact List column with the contact for the second task within the same row as that first task. Then you can have your workflow send an alert to the contact in that specific column once the current task has been marked as "complete."

You can read more via our Help Center:

If this doesn't sound like a good option, could you provide us with a little more information in regards to what the tasks are and how they are organized within your sheet?

Thanks!

Genevieve
