I would like some help trying to figure out a "VLOOKUP" formula. I am trying to get the circled number on the attached file to go onto another sheet. I have tried all different ways and I cannot seem to get it to work. Please help.
It almost sounds as if cell linking would be more what you need than a VLOOKUP.
Hi,
If it's always the same cell, you could use cell linking instead.
Would that work for you?
I hope this helps you!

I am really new to smart sheet. Can you explain?
Happy to!
The easiest way is to go to the sheet with the information that you want to show in another sheet.
Select the cell(s) and right click and choose "Copy" and then go to the sheet where you want the cell(s) information to show and select the cell where that information should be and right click and "Paste Special" and select "Links to copied cells".

Thank you
Happy to help!

The issue I have run into is that if 2 steps are completed the same day, SS is only picking up on the first one and showing the 2nd one as the next step to be…
