Cell Linking - Updating Source Sheet
Not sure if this has been answered before and if so, apologies, I could not find anything relevant.
My team has been trying to link from a 'schedule' sheet out to smaller sheets so that we no longer have to manually update the smaller sheets. Unfortunately, we have found that whenever we need to update the linked cells in the source sheet (schedule), we have to break the link in order to update that cell.
Are we doing something incorrectly here? Manually updating these smaller sheets is wearing on my team.
Thanks!

Hi @kdashnaw
I hope you're well and safe!
Strange! It almost sounds like it's set up the other way, so the source is the destination.
Have you double-checked?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
Best,

Hi there,
Not sure, but I can check on which way we are linking. I also want to note that the schedule sheet we are trying to link from also has formulas in every cell. Not sure if this makes a difference or not?
Thanks,
Kelsey

Happy to help!
Yes, double-check and let me know.
Formulas shouldn't make a difference.
