Hi All,
I wonder if there is a way to make the Day initals (i.e. Sat, Sun, Mon...etc) show up next to the date in smartsheets?

Hi,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment to get in the same cell, but it's a great idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
As a workaround, you could add a column and have it show there.
Would that work?
Have a fantastic day!

It also depends on how the dates are entered. If manually, Andree's suggestion will work. If you are using a formula, you could add to it, but it would then render the date useless for future calculations.
I just realized that you could change the format of the date and at least include the name of the month or day.
Duh! The new date formats. There is one that works exactly as the poster describes... Ugh.
Exactly, Duh is the word!
Column you want the Initials =IF(WD1 = 1, "Sun", IF(WD1 = 2, "Mon", IF(WD1 = 3, "Tues", IF(WD1 = 4, "Wedy", IF(WD1 = 5, "Thu", IF(WD1 = 6, "Fri", IF(WD1 = 7, "Saturday", "")))))))
Helper Column WD =WEEKDAY([Date]1)
DATE Column

You could also combine your two columns into 1 to save a little space if needed...
=IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 1, "Sun", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 2, "Mon", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 3, "Tues", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 4, "Wedy", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 5, "Thu", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 6, "Fri", IF(WEEKDAY([Date]@row) = 7, "Saturday", "")))))))
Just use the WEEKDAY function directly in your nested IF's.
Wow, awesome Paul! Thanks!
Hello, I'm working through the writing formulas optional activity and in the 'Nested IF function - Progress Column' task it directs you to put in the following formula '=IF([% Complete]@row = 0, “Empty”)'. However, when I put this formula into the spreadsheet, '04a_Marketing Request Tracker - Formulas', I get an…
I have an automation that has a condition where I am looking at the column "LEA Interco Supporting Site(s)" and trying to find columns that have the value "Fort Loramie" in them. This works well when "Fort Loramie" is the first item listed in the cell, but it doesn't work when "Fort Loramie" is the second or third value in…
Have any of you created a Smartsheet that would show the savings for a project by the month? In other words, if I saved $1200 annually and the project ended in say March, then the savings would go $120 per month, Mar 2025-Feb 2026. I have done it on Excel sheets manually, but I think there should be a way to do it with…
