Issues linking cells

I have created a dashboard linking cells to cells in other sheets. It has been working great.

However, I am now running into issues when linking new cells:

1. The End date is not populated.
2. The %Complete in the dashboard does not roll up the the group.

If I try to link the <End Date> cell it says, "You cannot create a link in this cell because it's value is determined by a project dependency"

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Peter.

Are you cell linking into a Gantt enabled sheet with dependencies enabled?

I do not see a column for duration, which is used to calculate the end date

Great! That was it. I was not linking the duration as it was not needed in the main dashboard. This solved both my issues. Talk of killing two birds with one stone...

Thanks Benjamin for your quick response.

p.s. This would be a great thing to add to FAQ/Troubleshooting. That way, othes can benefit from it.
