Referring to comments/discussion in cell

Denis Gudtsov

Hi All

 

I'm looking for a way how to insert text comments into cell. Is it possible (in read-only mode)?

Use case: we have a sheet for issue tracking purposes which consist of the following columns:

 

issue id, issue title, issue description, current state, status, etc.

 

At present we use the “current state” column as a log by writing there info like:

 

01/01 – issue created

 

02/01 – issue under analysis

 

03/01 – more data requested

 

…

 

It’s nice to use comments/discussion feature offering by Smartsheet. But I need to see the latest actual comment in the list view. If I have number of issues even 10, then I will have to open each comments tread and look for the latest comment there.

 

Would be very appreciate to have feature/formula replicating several latest comments into cell to present it in list view.

I would also like to know the answer to this question!
