Critical Path View for Viewers

Sarah Berendsen

Is there a way to allow people with viewer access to a sheet to see the critical path on the gantt view? The project team would like to be able to view the critical path but not allow every person to have edit rights on the sheet. Any advice is appreciated!

Sarah,

 

This appears to be a bug or non-feature. Publishing the sheet or generating a Report does not provide the critical path you are looking.

 

I stopped using the critical path 2 years ago because it is inaccurate. That is likely the reason I never noticed this before.

Craig ... so your recommendation is NOT to use the Critical Path function in smartsheets..? Thanks in advance...

Pramod,

 

I don't use it. Others do.

I believe that incorrect or incomplete data is often worse than no data, most of the time.
