Hey Everyone,
I'm trying to build a Job Calendar. I've input the dates and split it up into Man Days and Man Weeks. My dilemma is this: I need to be able to select a range of dates (ie Jan 1-8) so we can see our expense for that specific week. I've searched everywhere and cannot figure this out. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hello,
To accomplish this, you might consider breaking down your construction calendar by the week by adding each week as a separate row. You'll want to copy your formulas down onto the new rows as well, making sure to have one new row per week (or per period that you want to measure) and input the dates correctly.
You can even indent your weekly rows underneath your parent row, and use SUM(CHILDREN()) functions to roll up all of the weekly totals into a grand total.

Hey Shaine,
I grouped all the weeks together into their respective rows as suggested. Is there a formula that will auto fill the weeks? (Take the start date and the end date and "fill" the weeks in, instead of manually inputting them?) Also, is there a way to "assign" a PM to a row so that row will generate a color on the gantt whenever they are brought in? I created a dropbox with their information, but nothing seems to change when I bring them in. Thanks for all the help!
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.
