I would love an area where I can outline specific information, filter details, or specific usage instructions within a report when sharing with my team. Especially those that are mainly collaborators and don't spend as much time in Smartsheet.

I’m thinking the top left corner, at the row/column nexus, a user could click an icon there to learn about the report—any applicable back story or instructions, etc.

Similar to the "Column Descriptions" in Sheets, it would be extremely helpful to have "Sheet Descriptions" and "Report Descriptions".
It seems there is a recognition that users would want the ability to explain important information about a column. But before a user can understand the column, they need to understand the context of the SHEET or REPORT they are working in. There is currently no way to communicate that information.

It would be extremely helpful if there was a way to have data pull into a form from another Smartsheet source based on selections made within the form. Example: On the form there is a dropdown to select a client property number. The property Name, Address, and any additional property information are then pulled into the…
