Hi,
I am trying to put a formula into a cell to say that if a check box is checked, put in the date that box was checked. I was able to do this before but it is no longer working. Is there still a way to do this?
Thanks.
You can have a formula that adds today's date, but the problem is that the TODAY function will update to the current date always so it will not store the date. You'd either have to add it manually, use a third-party solution like Zapier, the Smartsheet API, or create a workaround like locking the row and similar.
Would any of those methods work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Can you explain the work around more with locking the row?
Sure!
If we use the automation and lock the row after the box gets checked, the Modified Date column would then fix on the date/time from that event but this only works, if there aren't any more changes, are needed for the row.
Make sense?
One other method, but it's more advanced, would be to use the third-party service, Zapier, to add the date to another column for when the box gets checked. Is that an option?
I have set up a form with conditional logic to display the fields I want to display upon select criteria and that is working. However, at the beginning of the form I only want 2 fields to display and the rest to be hidden. Based on the below logic I thought the form would only show the first 2 fields selected but that is…
Hello, I am not sure i understand what the scheduler means in the data shuttle I have set up. Does the below mean that my scheduler will run every hour from 5 am to 8 pm each day? I need it to update often but not sure if this will do it or not. Thank you to those that are smarter than me :-)
I have requested for a snapshot, but I have not received the email yet. Any idea why and what do I need to do?
