How to prevent entire Gantt timeline from shifting when updating activity dates? (Float reduction instead)
Hi everyone, I’m looking for some guidance on how Smartsheet handles float and dependencies in a Gantt project schedule.

Limit Time-slot selections

"% Allocation", "Assigned Resource", "Task Duration" Impact to Task's End date??
I would appreciate some guidance on a common project scheduling practice in Smartsheet. Typically, resource allocation (% allocation) and assigned resources are defined before building the WBS.
