Does anyone know if there is a way to produce a report or a list of rows whereby Column A has changed in the last n number of days? I'm trying to produce an exec level weekly report of key projects whose end dates that have changed in the last week.
You would need to include a date type column where users can enter the date that they changed the data in Column A. If Column A is the only column that would be changing once a row is put into place, you could use a system generated Modified (date) type column.
Unfortunately though, if there are other columns in the row changing, the changes would have to be manually date stamped as there is no feature (yet) that allows for an automatic date and/or time stamp of a specific action.
Thank you, Paul. We are playing around with using the sys gen mod date field but as you pointed out, many other columns on the row can also be changed.
You may be able to use a 3rd party app such as Zapier or possibly the Smartsheet API to pull the date/time stamp for a specific action within a set column, but otherwise since multiple cells within the row are changing, you would need to have users manually enter the date/time of the change.
I am not very familiar with the API (at all). I do know though that Zapier links to Smartsheet very easily. I am not sure of exactly the setup you would need within Zapier to accomplish this, but it is generally pretty user friendly.
Hi Mary,
The third-party service, Zapier is an excellent option for this scenario. Is that an option for you?
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!

Hey, Is anyone else facing this issue in the approval notifications sent through smartsheet
I have a sheet with a list of customers in one column, and then the following columns are City, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. I need help with a formula that I can put in my sheet summary so that if the customer column says Staples (It can say this in multiple rows) that it will tell me the total package…
Hi Smartsheet community, I've always tried to answer questions but this is my first time posting. So I have formula =IF([Project Status]@row = "Complete", 1, 0) set up in the "Complete Check - Hide column" to check the box when the project status is marked complete. The project status column is tied to several other sheets…
