Program-Level Reporting

ESQ

High,

I have several several project plans from various Project Managers, each handling a different part of the whole program.

I want to extract the level 1&2 ancestors (Whole line) into a another sheet where I will be keeping these extracts from all of the Project Plans.

How can I do this?

Thx in advance.

If you have an indicator column in each project plan, say a checkbox for level 1& 2 or ancestor, you can create a Report from all the project plan sheets and filter by that indicator column.

Also, have you seen or tried the the Project Management Office template set from Smartsheet. This is a great set of tools to take project plans and roll-up views to the next level.

Hi @ESQ

I hope you're well and safe!

• Have you explored using a Report instead?
• You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.
• Another option would be to use so-called helper sheets. In short, copy the row to a helper sheet and then use my method described previously to get the values you need to another helper sheet and then copy/move the row from that sheet to the main destination sheet.

Would any of those options work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,
