Hi, I am having a problem with one formula that is not automatically copying to a new row (there are others that are being copied). The formula is:
=JOIN(CHILDREN([Column Name]1, ", ")
Why every other formula is being copied but not this?
Thanks.
Hi,
Strange!
Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic weekend!
Best,

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I shared with you.
Thanks!
I'll take a look and get back to you!
Happy to help!
If I understand what you want to do you must use and add an Absolute Reference ($).
=JOIN(CHILDREN($[Ações (O quê?)]$5), ", ")

Enter something below the yellow cell and press Enter: the formula at the column "Riscos Impactados" is copied.
Do it again below the "something" and press Enter: the formula is NOT copied.
I hope it is clear now. Thanks!
Ok.
I tested and I see what you mean now. Strange!
If you haven’t already, I would recommend that you reach out to the Smartsheet Support Team. Smartsheet Support Team
But, it worked after I saved the sheet so it's working.
It works for little time. If you include rows and new hierarchy it stops working! I have 20 sheets with this same problem!
I'd recommend checking with Smartsheet Support.
Let me know how it goes!
Hi all! I'm working on a column formula that will check whether the Column2ref cell in the current row is blank. If it is blank, the formula finds the maximum value in the ID column where the Trainer Name matches the Trainer Name cell value in the current row and the ID cell value is less than the ID cell value in the…
How do I see who submitted a form for a specific sheet?
Hi, I have a Gantt covering 500+ rows of events past and planned. I use it to predict and track values around these events. Using helper columns to identify the current week, I get an email report on a Monday that tells me the upcoming events in the current week (7 days) and their values. Currently if an event spans…
