Does anyone use Smartsheets for employee scheduling? I have about 25 people across four sites that I schedule. There are changes everyday. I also need to save a history of the schedules.
I currently use excel and google docs.
Thank you.

Hi Robert,
You might try importing your current excel doc in as a new sheet in Smartsheet. More info on this is available in our help center: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/504553-importing-files-to-create-new-sheets
From there, you can attach any google docs you need to rows in the sheet. (Details on attaching files from Google drive here: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/518404-deleting-editing-versioning-attachments )
Smartsheet has a resource management feature so you can schedule people across your sites without overallocating them. Details on Resource Management are available here: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/1346969-resource-management-allocation-team-enterprise-only-
