Hi,
I'd like to add an auto number column, but I would like to set the specific range in numbers. For example, I need the auto numbers to be between 0 and 250 without duplicating. Is there a way to set those limits? Thanks.

Hi Jay,
Interesting, what's your use case?
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
As a workaround, you could maybe have an alert or conditional formatting, indicating that it reached 250.
Would that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

autonumber will never duplicate a number. set your first value to a 1 or 0 inside of the autonumber settings and as long as you don't create more than 250 rows it will not go over 250. That said from your description auto number probably isn't the correct solution for you. You probably need a custom formula to produce the results you want. can you describe a little more about the sheet your using and how information is added and subtracted from it?
Thank you, Andree. I've set up a couple of sheets for team members that need to submit vendor estimates for media buying. The estimate number has to be between 0 and 250, so it corresponds with our internal system.
I need the auto number to generate an estimate number based on two conditions from two other columns. Client Code(currently a drop down) and Product code(currently a drop down). The estimate number can only be the same if the client code and product code are different.
If client code and product code are the same, then the estimate number has to be different. See attached if that makes sense.
Do you think perhaps I should have a separate sheet where I add all of the possible estimate numbers based on client code and product code, then on my sheets, I make a formula for the Estimate Number that references the separate sheet, and gives me a new estimate number? Do you know what I mean?
Thanks again for your help,
Happy to help!
I agree with you, creating another sheet with the Estimate Numbers sounds like an excellent solution.
Let me know how it goes or if you need any assistance!
Hello. Me and my team are doing an audit of users who have access to edit items in our account and one of the reports we're using is the Sheet Access report under the User Management section of the Admin Center. However, we're running into some weird things. When we dig into the Sheet Access report, we sometimes notice…
No License required I am sharing a published link, no license required to a group of people. The goal is for them to be able to edit the sheet. Would each member be required to create a smartsheet account? Please, is there a way for them to access my sheet without having to create an account? Many thanks!
This has happened a couple of times before. However, when trying to update a form or even a field in the smartsheet, I am unable to use the backspace, enter or delete key. I use Google browser, however I wasn't sure if it was Google, so I switched to Microsoft Edge. Still not working. Also, I tried using the backspace,…
