Gantt Chart Predecessors
I recently came from construction scheduling where we used Buildertrend. Their Gannt charts were great to work with and easy to use. They had it where you would manually drag the predecessor arrow to the task that follows, it would stay in place, then you could adjust from there. I dislike how in smartsheet you can link…

Elapsed Days Counter - How?
Hi everyone, I'm needing to report on elapsed days for a few tasks. Anyone know how to do this? Note - this is different from the 'duration' function that already exists in the Gannt view. That is where I have a start and end date. In this example, I have a start date, but no end date quite yet. Any help is greatly…

Flexible Duration value when calculating scheduling dates
It would be useful for the Duration to be dynamic (e.g. linking cell to a cell in another sheet or to contain a formulae) as part of the scheduling calculation to automatically derive the start/end dates for tasks in a Gantt Chart. It is quite common in a construction project for the Duration element of a task to be based…

The last task/activity in my project plan is not the "end" of the project, or at least not the end that we care about for reporting purposes. I work in pharma, and our project sheets are tracking toward their NDA submissions, which is the "end" of the project that everyone cares about when it comes to executive reporting…

Repeating columns on Gantt chart on all sheets

For example a 12 month schedule could be broken into…

Start/Finish Date Updates based on Status - Gantt Charts
I have a Gantt Chart that my company uses to track a multi-step process. In this process, Step 2 cannot begin until Step 1 is completed, Step 3 cannot begin until Step 2 is complete, etc.. Each step normally takes 2 weeks (and this is what we have in the Duration column), but due to the number of moving pieces it can…

Add today line to Gantt Report in Dashboards
The today line should be visible when a report is added to a dashboard in Gantt view. This is a very necessary reference point for a dashboard.

Not all "Actual" bar show in gantt chart
Hi, Some of the tasks/sub-activities in my gantt chart do not show the "actual" bar even there is a reported progress (e.g. below activity with 25% progress). I'd appreciate any advise. @Andrée Starå @Genevieve P. perhaps you can assist? Thanks IPC

Gantt View has come to WorkApps!

Display timelines for customised fiscal year
Dear Smartsheet community If you work in a company with fiscal year not starting in January, you might find this improvement useful: change FY year only is displayed from the last month in a fiscal year. Because this might be confusing, I propose to show FY split year, e.g. FY 22/23 instead of FY 2023. Example: if the…
