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), ", ")

Did it work?

Hi, Andrée!
No, it is not the case of Absolute Reference.
If you do a simple test you will see what I mean:
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!
I am trying to create a sheet summary, where the field is a formula that relies on a contact card within a column. However, it keeps returning a result of "#NO MATCH". The columns involved are, 1:) Priority (symbol column) for Up, Unchanged, and Down, and 2:) Contact Card column. I am trying to get a sheet summary formula…
Hello, I have a workflow where, when a team member checks a checkbox, Smartsheet automatically sends an email to themselves containing merge fields that are used as a customer email draft. The challenge is that this activity typically happens on a deadline day, and a team member may need to generate 30 or more of these…
Hi all, reaching out to see if of you have ideas; I'm hoping this makes sense: I'm having some trouble getting my formulas to pull data in correctly. I currently have a sheet (primary data) where I have data in rows where each row is a single project, with columns identifying persons, $ values, unique project identifier,…
