I've done some research, so I'm pretty sure I already know the answer. I have a project with a hard completion date. I would like to have any subtask scheduled backward from the completion date. Can that be done in Smartsheet?
Hi,
There is a Template called: Project with Hard Deadline and Gantt that probably is what you´re looking for.
Hope that helps!
Did it work?
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

Andree,
Please enter the link for this Template or information you found. Your comments are useless to everyone searching. This is not the best website for searching and finding correct answers at the top of the list. On these community boards we need to be accurate in the links to point people in the right direction. Thanks.
At the time of my post, I don't think it was possible to link to the templates but now it is so here you go:

This Template is located in the SOLUTION CENTER
Go To Solution Center
Enter Search : Project with Hard Deadline
You will see the Single Project Template Called
"Project with Hard Deadline and Gantt"
Click on it and it will appear in your SmartSheet Collection
Not much to look at but at least it can start a person in the right direction for entering a Deadline Date and the remainder of items get scheduled using predecessors with SF with task below.
My link above is the direct link to open a copy in your account.
Here's a link to the Solution Center page with that specific template.

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.
