Update request missing option to change end dates

Monica Luttman

Hello,

I'm a rookie to smartsheet and PM work.  I have sent out my update requests and my partners on the receiving end are telling me they cannot update the end date field.  They are able to edit every other field.  Can you help?

 

Does it have something to do with changing the end date of the parent row first?

 

Thanks!

Monica

Hello Monica—end dates used for dependencies can't be changed via update requests. This is mainly because the person submitting the update via the request doesn't have context for the other tasks that can be automatically pushed around based on the end date they set or change.
