Auto number Task Name/primary column with indent
Hello,
I am new to using Smartsheet for project planning. I am directly writing tasks into the Task Name column for a new, shared project. Thus, it is getting tedious to manually write "Task 1.1" for the child task of the parent Task 1 because the tasks can be edited/moved. Auto-numbering a new column did not seem to help.
Thank you!
Ambika

There are a number of solutions here in the Community that are formula based. You should be able to find something if you do a search for WBS.

Thank you so much, Paul, I did not know I was looking for WBS! I downloaded a very helpful template from another post.
