Automated resource based update requests
I would like to send the resources (and only the assigned resource) an update request each week for their tasks in all the schedules I have in Smartsheet. It's ok if they get one request per schedule. I understand I can schedule the update requests out in time and have them repeat, but it seems like I'd have to make an…

Update Requests for reoccurring process
Good morning Community, what is your recommendation when setting up Update Requests in a sheet for a process that repeats multiple times per year. Example, we run 8-10 promotions per year, for every promotion, we need to send update requests to 20+ separate trading partners. We would like to set up the Update Requests once…

Update request to mailer doesn't work?
Is there an accepted practice for sending an update request to multiple people? A contact column can only accept one contact rather than a list. I tried sending an update to a pre-defined mailer list, but when I send these requests, no-one on the mailer receives the email?! I can see the email being sent because I am on cc…

Collab invitations and update request emails not working
I've sent one invite to collaborate and update requests with myself copied, but my invitees are telling me they haven't received anything and that it's not in their Junk email box either. I'm not receiving copies of the invites, either. Is Smartsheet experience any technical glitches causing this problem right now? I have…

Email a row needs to have comments saved in comments box and link to row in email

numbers that start with zero and webforms
I have a webform that I am trying to create but one of the columns is a number field where the number commonly starts with a 0. My problem is that when you submit a number that starts with a 0, the 0 gets dropped unless the field is formatted as text. In smartsheet, the only way I see to format a field as text is to add an…

Post Trial Review of Smartsheet as an IT Project Management solution
I've been assessing Smartsheet as a viable replacement for MS Project at our office over the last 30 days and I thought I'd share my finding with the Smartsheet community in case somebody else is also doing such a review. I'd also invite Smartsheet to respond to my observations if they feel I've misrepresented anything…

Feature Request: Complete Update Request from within SS, or Refresh UR, or Edit UR
I send out dozens of update requests daily to people and yes some of them slip through the cracks. This is natural, as many people (myself included) set up filters for their incoming mail and don't always see them in a timely manner. As such, if I tell people to go through Smartsheet and check for their open update…
