Sorting workflows chronologically

Pam Grant

I have a number of workflows in a smartsheet.  I originally created them in the order they would happen.  When I update them, the updated step jumps to the top of the list. It would be helpful to be able to manually sort the workflows in the automation box.  I'm having a hard time sorting through the process every time I open the automation box.

Now that we can name them, a workaround is to assign each one a number but if I need to insert a new step at a later date, the renumbering could become cumbersome.

I concur. Having a way to sort them would be phenomenal. Please do submit an enhancement request! I have 35+ Operations on 4 different sheets. Keeping them straight and making sure they are all set up correctly is difficult when the last edited always jumps to the top. I'd much rather number or alphanetize them.

Enhancement request is submitted. :)
