Does anyone know if you can import a Excel spreadsheet into SmartSheet with embedded formulas and formulas linked to other sheets in the same Excel file without having to re-create the formula within SmartSheet?
Hi,
Unfortunately, you can only import one tab on the Excel spreadsheet each time.
I hope this helps you!

Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your response. That is what I gathered and I just wanted to make sure nothing has changed. The other question I do have is when I import any Excel sheet with existing formulas already created they do not import. I have to re-create each formula for each cell after I import into SmartSheet. Is there a way around this issue without having to re-create each formula once the data is imported into SmartSheet? Thanking you in advance.
Happy to help!
The formulas should get imported (if you choose to), but it might be that there's an issue at the moment. I'd recommend contacting the Smartsheet Support Team also.
Some Excel formulas don't have matches and don't import (at least, last time I checked).
In Excel, you can turn off formula calculation that allows you to edit them. I used to replace "=" with "!=" and then import that way, as it is no longer a formula, just text.

Dear Community, Can you please advise? I have a sheet where among other columns I have a column listing contacts "Champions" (multiple per cell) the other columns are for example: Countries (a list of 72) The list of Projects (approx 15) - I can add to that sheet, or I can create in a Helper Sheet. I haven't done that yet…
Looking for assistance again, I want to bring in the % complete from the Production sheet to the Schedule sheet, but once the % complete is 100 the data is moved to another sheet, so I would like to reference to check 1 sheet for percent complete and if it is not there check the second sheet. Schedule sheet: Pick Up Date…
