Using summaries from reports on dashboards

Rob Wright

So far in my use of smartsheet it does not look possible, but can anyone tell me if you can use summaries in reports (for instance an average for a risk score, contained in a summary row) to feed a metric in a dashboard. I haven't been able to achieve this so far and it seems odd that this functionality wouldn't be available

@Rob Wright Nope - this doesn't seem to be available yet. I always end up creating a metrics sheet with cross-sheet formulas to pull all the data I need for a dashboard.

Many thanks for confirming my suspicions Heather. I just can't figure out why this isn't possible; it would widen the possibilities to use it more easily no end!!!
