I have a slow sheet

Coleph01 · 01/03/18

I have a smart sheet that has about 2400 rows with multiple sections this has been going since 2014 however it is running very slow. How can I fix this or can it be fixed?

Word on the street (in this community) is that lots of conditional formatting can have a severely negative impact on sheet performance. By any chance do you have a lot of conditional formatting?

My Tips

Archive data from previous years out to seperate sheet
Create New sheet Each FY - If exactly the same as others then use report across all sheets to Interrogate data
