I am trying to use the Kanban view to allow a team to see a task with sub task checklists. Is there a way to auto assign the sub tasks by who is assigned to the parent task?

Hi Darin,
There currently isn't a way to automatically assign subtasks based on the assignment of the parent task. When you have a moment, please submit a Product Enhancement Request for this using the form under Quick links on the right of the community site.

I'm looking for a way to attach notes to a sheet that isn't attached to a specific row. Rows for many of my sheets are cleared out in preparation for the next iteration of the project, and I need a notes/comments field that remains with the sheet even when the rows do not.
I have a workspace that I am looking to move items from into a new workspace.

In the original workspace is a MAIN document that holds all…
