Hi,
Any suggestion how I can have the name instead email when I have a System column and choose "create by" option from my contact list?
Thanks.
Al
Hi Al,
There currently isn't a way to customize the display of the System (Created by) column.
When you have a moment, please submit a Product Enhancement Request using the form under Quick links on the right to let our Product team know that you'd like to have this feature added.
As a potential workaround, you can create an additional Text/Number column, and place a nested IF statement that will return people's names when their email appears in the system column. For example:
=IF([System Column]1 = "john.smith@gmail.com", "John Smith", IF([System Column]1 = "jane.doe@gmail.com", "Jane Doe"))
More on IF statements can be found in the help center: https://help.smartsheet.com/function/if
Shaine,
Thank you for your answer.
I submitted this request too.

I'm having a hard time writing a Nested IF statement for more than two options.
Thanks for your help.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
