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…

Gants - Resource allocation, Assigned Groups.
Hey there, new to Smart Sheet and have a question. I'm building gantt charts for some of our projects. I’d like to be able to account for the amount of people that belong to a group/resource to properly scope the amount of time needed for each task. For example, one task within the Gantt would be ‘Fabrication’ – I assign…

Start Date Autofilled by End Date and Duration
I'm building a construction schedule for cabinetry across multiple projects my company has going. Is there a way to dictate a start date, date the vendor needs to start working, by the known building/finishing time and the end date, date they need to be on site. I.E. I'd like to put in the end date: 1/22/18 and a duration…

Completion Status Bar with the Task Bar
This is a fairly straight forward question and I think I might know the answer, BUT here it goes. The completion status bar within the task bar is typically driven by the % Complete column. It appears that column (for the bar to work correctly) has to be manually entered. If I use a formula, it will give me a % but will…

VLOOKUP for multiple options influencing Gantt chart
I have a sheet that uses Gantt chart data to show assignments on a calendar. The persons assigned are all in a "Name" column that is a drop down with all the employee names on them. Next to that are start and end date columns that then show a bar range in calendar view. The employee's name will only appear in the bar in…

Dashboard Gantt for Extended Period Task Prevents Display of Current Dates
For a leadership dashboard, we have a report with a list of current projects. We want to display the Gantt chart on a dashboard. One of the projects began on 8/4/2015. The Gantt timeline begins in August 2015 and can scroll to the week of March 17, 2019. Given that it is May 23, 2019, this is a no-go. Workaround ideas? My…

Gantt rollup for multiple projects
We are trying to rollup multiple project sheets that have tied in metrics. The gantt view is not allowing us to have the dependency arrows on our rollup. Do you have any suggestions how to create this? We have multiple tasks on our project sheets that have dependencies but our phases do not. I tried copying the dependency…

Indenting sub-sub-tasks remove Gantt bars (start and finish dates)
Adding sub-tasks to a task seems to be no problem, perhaps because they are already indented. Indenting these sub-tasks removes all the start and finish dates for the rest of the sheet. Is there a way to avoid this and preserve the Start and f=Finish dates, thereby saving the Gantt chart? One way is to copy and past the…

Gantt Chart Printing with Current Date
Is there a way to print the current date dashed line that appears in the Gantt chart view on the screen when printing to a pdf? Having that visual cue would really help when printing this out for others. Thanks. Ryan
