I want to be able to use a dependency like "either/or" instead of "and"
ie: Task 3 can start after either Task 1 or Task 2 is finished, but does not require both tasks to be done.
Is this possible?
=if(or([Task 1]@row = "Finished",[Task 2] = "Finished"),1,0)
Thanks for the reply, but this seems to be saying "if task 1 is complete, task 2 is also complete" but that wouldnt be the case.
Task 1 and 2 wont be completed at the same time. But one of them needs to be done before Task 3.
I misunderstood, you mean how to set the predecessors on a project sheet then right?
Yes. I can make it use both predecessors, but I want it to use one *or* the other.

I don't want to copy the entire row, just select columns and I don't have Smartsheet Bridge. Each sheet has a…
Currently, I have a report connected to a single sheet. This sheet contains various formulas, including cross-sheet references. When data is added to the report, the formulas will not update/work unless the sheet is refreshed. Is there any way to have the formulas values "pop-up", or otherwise load? It is somewhat…
Hi I ran into an issue today where my smartsheet timeline was updated without any user's input and several dates were changed cascading to the entire timeline. I tracked it down to several tasks and started correcting them, realising that there is some issue when dependencies are using regular "day" duration and some are…
