I'm looking to collect ongoing data/statistics on how many tasks reach past due. I would like to collect this by person assigned and across all projects and then by month.
Any suggestions on how to tackle this using smartsheet?
I created a spreadsheet and used a couple cross-sheet references in a Countifs formula that will count all past due tasks, and where assigned to a particular person. We then linked that data into a dashboard! Because contact columns are finicky we used an email address and a Full name field to check against the contact column. See screenshot below.
Thank you Mike, I can give that a try! I currently have a report that shows me past due tasks across all my spreadsheets but it changes based on the task getting marked as complete. Ideally, I would be able to create a stats report-- something that could show, for instance, tasks assigned to "John" become past due 25% of the time.
Ah. I see what you mean. That would require tracking the actual completion date and measuring it against the due date. You might want to add a hidden column or a flag that adds text if the assignment or is triggered when the actual completion is past the due date. Then you could divide all the past due assignments that are completed and divide them by the total completed assignments to get a percentage number.
Would that work for you?
I have a report that will generally only have about 15 rows on it. I see in other threads that Smartsheet will automatically create enough blank rows to reach 50, or at least 10 blank rows always at the bottom. Even if I delete the blank rows from the Sheet (which has hundreds of data rows), they reappear the next time I…
I need to setup automations based on a contract date that will notify me on a monthly/quarterly/annual basis so I can process paperwork at the appropriate time. Ideally, I'd like to set it up to send an email 90 days before that date. I have columns for the initial contract date and the frequency (one for the word…
Hi everyone, Is there a way to set a dashboard as the default homepage for all users upon login? Ideally, we’d like users to land directly on a particular dashboard instead of the usual default page. Is this possible through configuration, or is there a plugin or workaround that can help us achieve this? Thanks in advance!
