I have a start time and end time in my smartsheet but need to calculate hours worked. Has anyone used a formula before to do this? if so can you pass along?
so I figured out the issue, I was missing a bracket. I have also condensed the formula down since I do not need start and end dates.
No I need to figure out how to set that formula to be used in every cell for that column by default. I tried using a Managed Workflow.
But when it is added, I get this result:
Notice the punctuation mark at the beginning, this gets added by the system so the text is not treated as a formula.
Hi @MSGFreebird
I hope you're well and safe!
Unfortunately, you can't use the change cell value action to add formulas.
You could convert the formula to a Column Formula so it's automatically added to all rows.
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Please submit this as a Product Feedback or Idea (If it hasn't been added already) when you have a moment.
@MSGFreebird You are going to need to right click on a cell containing the formula and then select "Convert to column formula" (near the bottom of the menu).

I was able to get the formula to work but it doesn't seem to be calculating correct. Can you please review and let me know what i'm doing wrong. After looking at numbers all day i'm sure i'm overlooking something simple.
