I have an approval request setup in my sheet, and an age column where I am tracking the number of days since the approval request was sent out. I need a method to mark the whole project tree "Closed" if any of the children's requests for approval's "age" is over (2) days
Hi aaboueid,
I'm still not clear how your sheet is setup but is the following what you're after?
=IFERROR(IF(MIN(CHILDREN([Approval Request Date]1)) < TODAY() - 2, 1, 0), "")
You could add some conditional formatting for the row based on the value in the Closed column.
Thanks Chris, this worked flawlessly!
Chris, on closer observation, it is working perfectly if there are no grandchildren, please see screenshot, the issue for review is (3) days old, I need the grandparent "LC Lemle" to be marked closed in the P_Closed column, not just the direct parent "Specs & Drawings"
Here is the formula in P_Closed column:
=IFERROR(IF(MIN(CHILDREN(Age@row)) > 2, 1, 0), "")
My pleasure. It's probably best to adapt what you have already instead of re-working it. How are you calculating the Age column? I'd tackle this by looking for:
=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN(Age1)>0,MAX(CHILDREN(Age1), FALSE) with FALSE being whatever formula you're already using in Age to come up with the 3 value.
You could also add another column to identify which rows are parents or children and use that in your formula to determine which Age value to check against.
Here is the function in the Age column:
=IF(ISBLANK(Issued@row), "", NETWORKDAYS(Issued@row, TODAY()))
And we have an"Is_Parent" check box column identifying parent rows
Hi Team Is there an update on this Community post from a year go? Issues with copying in the Windows App - Table View - Smartsheet Community I have confirmed in both Desktop and Web Applications, and on multiple browsers where the Clipboard setting in "ALLOWED", but the copy/paste CTRL-C/CTRL-V is not working. It doesn't…

Hey, We already have a native way to highlight a project's critical path: But is there a way to implement a filter based on this criteria? I would like to be able to run a portfolio level report to show me all critical paths across projects. Thanks for your help, Matt
