Relational database / multiple values on sheet 2 linked to sheet 1
Hi Is it possible (and if not could it be?) to edit the value in a cell of a column that does not appear on the original sheet where a line in a report is pulled from? In other words, I'd like to emulate a 'relational' database. The use case is that we'd like to log results, measured using a series of indicators, of…

Report Viewability
So I have created several Reports and have noticed that when you add them to a Dashboard, anyone with Dashboard Access can view them as a Widget; however, When made a viewer on the Report itself, all the people see is a blank page. Do the Viewers also need access to the sheet the report is pulled from? If so then reports…

Saving Sort criteria for later use
It would be very, very useful if the users could save the sort criteria as a preset. That way, they could choose from a list of previously used Sort criteria. We have a Smartsheet with a lot of different columns that we contstantly need to change the sorting view, so this would speed up the process.

Enhancement Request - Parents as Criteria in Reports
I would like to have parents be used as filtering criteria in reports without 1. Showing the parent row which is generally useless and 2. The need for a helper column. Yes this is easily solvable with a helper column and the Parent() formula, but this is an ugly solution that fills up the sheet with more columns and more…

External Inputs

IE, is there a way to set up a sheet so that whenever a certain program updates its information your sheet does as well? If so, what types of programs function in this way with SmartSheet? Is it limited in scope or is there a…

I have multiple crews on the same project/in the same sheet, but the issue I have is they each have a different working schedule - for example night shift is Sunday to Thursday night, day shift is Monday to Friday, and some…

Time of day
As an event planner I need to assign start and end times i.e. 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. to meetings and tasks that need to be completed. I can obviously type in the times, but they do not sort correctly as anything starting with a "1" regardless of AM or PM will shoot to the top. I can put a "0" in front of any AM times, such…

Mandatory or Required fields to complete in a smartsheet
I have a need for users when updating or entering data in a cell in a smartsheet that they must complete some mandatory fields. A webform has this function, however on existing rows it would be ideal to have users who are given updates or entering in a new row to have to complete some mandatory fields before final saving…
