Is there a way to add a format to an entire column so that it automatically includes a dollar sign and a decimal place without having to click the currency button everytime?
Hello,
Thanks for this question! If you select those two formatting options after clicking on the column header (this will select the whole column), you'd see that format automatically in every row added after this and you wouldn't need to click the formatting buttons each time.
You can find further information on this at our Help Center here.
Please let me know if you have further questions on this or if you're looking for something else!
Kind regards,

Thank you! Works perfectly
Hi, I am trying to fix PLN currency which is not available in Smartsheet.
I have found such a discussion in arichves from 2017 with an advice that it shall be typed manually.
The Question is:
Is there any way to format cell so it displays the currency & value in the way that it could be calculated & automated as numbers / values with defined currencies ?
Kind regards, Piotr
If you select those two formatting options after clicking on the column header
Which 2 formatting options???????

Is there a way to change format from 'text' to 'currency'? I have googled and came up with nothing yet.
Hi @PeggyLang
It sounds like the $ sign was manually entered into the cell, which would translate your numbers into text values. The easiest thing to do may actually be to write a formula to strip out that "$" symbol and return values in a second column:
=VALUE(SUBSTITUTE([Dollar Values]@row, "$", ""))
Has anyone found a workaround for sharing Smartsheet reports externally without giving access to internal data? I currently have to download the data and transfer it onto excel to create a pivot table for our client and I want to find an easier way to do so. I also already create a dashboard for our client, but I wanted…
Hello team! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. I am trying to set up an automation that will send an email reminder one time when Next Update Date = 60 days, then another automation at 30d, etc. The key is I only want it to send the reminder one time when Next Update threshold is reached. Is this possible?…
I have an automation setup to escalate to managers when a step goes beyond 2 days. I have that titled as Escalation for Purchasing, Escalation for Planning, etc. In my trial run, 3 out of 6 showed up as Reminder: New part number request log ( this is the name of the sheet) The only thing we could see was that the ones that…
