Hours and Minutes as timeline feature in Gantt View

I need to map out a daily production schedule in Gantt format, but need the timeline to show hours and minutes instead of days/weeks/months.

    You can place the suffix H after your duration unit, but the smallest increment on the Gantt timeline is unfortunately DAYS.

    I would like to see this changed also.

  • I also need the ability to see schedules to the minute. Lack of this capability makes Smartsheets ineffective as a cutover scheduling tool. Instead I'm using Microsoft Project. And because I can't use Smartsheets as a cutover scheduling tool I'm not using it at all. Which means I will likely end my subscription.

  • I love that I can enter down to milliseconds (or decimal values of minutes, seconds, etc), but these are not very useful if I can't visualize the process. The smallest visualization of 1 day / 1 week is limiting. I need a zoom to show me incredibly short timeframes (some as small as 10ms, some as large as 3s).

    I would love being able to put minutes and hours in the Gantt visual.

    It would be great if we can put hours and/or min to the timeline view of the day…

    This is a needed feature for some of the more technical aspects of project management like go-live tasks when launching software or pushing platform updates. My current need that had me seeking this functionality is to build a "schedule of scheduled jobs" to track when our various connected systems run:

    1. Data extract refreshes (Tableau to Smartsheet - because the live connection is still VERY problematic)
    2. Data model rebuilds (dbt)
    3. Data pipeline tasks
    4. Data refresh schedule from external sources (weather & regulatory agencies)
    5. Scheduled Tableau alerts
    6. Manual tasks with hard deadlines (e.g. - manual data entry by X:00am followed by manual QA/QC of entered data by XX:00am)

    I'd love to be able to enter this in grid view (for simplicity) then be able to quickly switch to Gantt view so my project team & stakeholders can clearly see dependencies.
