Sheet Summary for Time Savings/ROI

Ian Cooper

My team uses several sheets to automate entire workflows. What I would like to do is assign a "value" to each automation, so every time the automations run, it summarizes the "value" at the sheet level. This would be an easy metric to supply to leadership when they are looking to cut costs.

As an example, Smartsheet may cost $X, but we've removed Y amount of labor hours from our processes, resulting in a savings of $Z.

So you are basically looking to generate a usable count of how many times an automation has run?

I agree with Ian on this topic. Time saved is a huge requested metric that I have to report on. The best we can manage now is narrative reporting by team members.
