Request for new functionality: Automated entry of cell-completer

Michael Barker

Hi, I love the new automation features (e.g. automated entry of dates into a column). I would really benefit from similar automation for population of a column for the cell-completer (i.e. the person who made an entry into a cell).

The flow would be similar to this:

• Automation is set up and enabled
• John Smith makes entry into Column A
• SmartSheet recognizes that John Smith made the entry
• SmartSheet populates Column B with John Smith's name/contact

Thanks for your consideration !
