Hello - We are using one of the templates to track a project. We track % complete at the lowest level and then use the parent rolled up % complete. We are seeing a very strange error in the parent % complete. I have attached a few examples that show the problem. You can see that the cost rolling up is not the same as the %…
I'm currently trying to find a way to do a simple iterative count using the automation tools in smartsheet. Simple iteration is one of the most basic tools in computer based problem solving, so it seems like a good feature to have built into automation tools. The specific situation is that I want to track how long a card…
I have a project plan that I am now updating to establish dependencies. Everything was going fine until I updated one task's predecessors and a completely separate row's dates (and associated span in the gantt chart) started flashing. I'm guessing that there is some circular logic or something that might be causing this…
If I have a task that can only happen on a Tuesday (e.g. that's when an approval committee meets), and all the predecessors are scheduled to complete the previous Thursday, how do I schedule the task to start on the first Tuesday after the predecessor completes?
I'm creating a sheet summary report to use for a dashboard and have my source data broken out by phases. I'd like to be able to group the report data by phase, so I tried adding a single selection dropdown to the sheet summary. However, it's returning blank in the report. The source data is a project management / Gantt…
I am trying to create a Smartsheet to track project completion (Integration) for my company and am running into multiple hurdles with the reporting. I'd love to hear your insight on how to overcome these issues without having to turn off all dependencies. Without dependencies the product doesn't offer much for project…
is there the ability to colour in a column not a row to show for example UK bank holidays or staff holidays etc.. to show in a very quick visual way any clashes that might be avoided.
We use a separate gantt timeline for every project. We also use a simple grid to capture to-do tasks not relating to any specific project. We want to be able to view all cards from all projects, on one kanban board, to get an overarching view of everything going on. Can someone please tell me a simple way to do this?…
Has there been an update to allow color edit to the gantt chart parent row bars? Thanks - Julie
I have two dates: A and B. B's start is dependent on A's completion. If everything goes as planned, A will finish on 2/27 and B will start on 4/1. B's start date is constant unless A's finish is delayed beyond the planned start. For example, if A is delayed until 3/15, B will still start on 4/1; but if A is delayed until…
