Send Update Request

Gecko

Hello All

I want to share an exciting SS discovery! I am currently doing the Smartsheet Project Management course.  

The send Update Request function will truly transform my work life.

This option does not require the person being requested information to log into smartsheet to answer the specific questions I require anwsered! When they complete the answers and press send, my schedule if auto updated and I recive confirmation of the update.

This is truly amazing, thank you Smartsheet.

Gecko,

 

Yes, it is a great tool.  The thing is you really have to keep on your folks so that they remember to do it in a timely manner.  This can be done with recurring update requests, or even with reminders, but be prepared for the people you work with not thinking they are as cool as you do - and just ignoring them.

 

I think I'm going to start setting all of my UR as recurring until people get the hang of it.
