Using Multiple Forms to fill a single line item
I need to use multiple forms to fill out a single line item.
I'm setting up an account for genetic testing and there are four phases of information I need to collect.
Setup, Registration, Process, and Collection
I know Smartsheet doesn't support multiple forms for one line so I am working on a work around.
I created a separate smartsheet for each phase of information collection. Setup --> Registration --> Process --> Collection.
I automated that for a new line in phase I to move to phase 2. When a new item from phase 2 is added I automated it to move to phase 3.
I can get the information to move over, but I can't the form on the new sheet to populate the last line that was added.
Any suggested workarounds for this to get information from each phase into a single line?
Any other workarounds for needed 4 forms to get a single line of information?
