Reusing link on update requests
I have multiple rows being sent to the same user for an update request. All the update requests are linked to a single url. So the user went in and completed 3 of 10 rows, saved and then exited. The link does now not work because Smartsheet thinks the update has been completed, but there's still 7 of 10 that need to be updated.
Is there an automated way to work around this?

I hope you're well and safe!
Here are some Workarounds.
- Add a Workflow that would trigger from each change and send out another update request. Add a so-called helper column with a checkbox the user uses to indicate that they are done with all the rows (so no more update requests are sent).
- Premium App, Dynamic View.
Would any of those options work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

This has to do with how a milestone is represented (ie. a 0 day duration). If you hard type milestone without a predecessor or successor, it will show up as the beginning of that day instead of the end of the day. If you have a milestone that is following a standard finish to start logic, it will show up at the end of the previous activity. <\/p>
So, Task B4 in the backwards version is actually saying that the completion happened in the 00:00 hr of that day. if you put any activity in that has a duration and uses the start to finish relationship, that activity will naturally finish at the end of the previous day. So, to get your example above to work, the finishing task would need to be 1 day long so it takes up the full work day. I found it easier to visualize if you zoom all the way in on the gantt chart so you can see the diamond symbol of the milestone at the beginning and end of the days when used in different set ups.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":108291,"type":"question","name":"Conditional formatting in Gantt not working with dependencies","excerpt":"For some reason it seems like my conditional formatting rules aren't being applied to certain rows in the Gantt chart side of this sheet.
