Multiple selections from drop-down list, enhance database function
Thanks for your feedback. We know this is needed, and hope to get it out this year. It is dependent on the completion of some other work we are doing (which I promise you will be thrilled about) and we hope to have that Q3 this year (I have to be intentionally vague about this, sorry). We do hear you and are eager to ship it out as soon as we can.
+1 vote. This will make project tracking, intake processes, and surveying work out of Smartsheet. We understand the workaround option, but with other tools available here we are having trouble driving adoption of migration into Smartsheet on our 800 person team.
Without having the multi select option available, the form becomes unnecessarily cluttered. Is this coming soon or do I need to find another solution? Thanks, karen
Yes, I'm another customer that wants this feature, but here is my question: why is it going to take 3+ years to add such a seemingly simple and obvious feature? This thread was started in 2015. The latest response from Kara says that it will be released sometime - who knows when - after the 3rd quarter 2018. What am I missing? Why is this so difficult and why is Smartsheet ignoring what appears to be a popular and important request from its customers?
Ok, how about using a helper column with a 0 or 1 being input by your automation, and then use this as the trigger. So set the default on the column to 0, and if an attachment is there, leave it at 0. Then if an attachment is not there workflow will set it to 1, and that would trigger the automated workflow to run.<\/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":[{"tagID":334,"urlcode":"automations","name":"Automations"}]},{"discussionID":108318,"type":"question","name":"Count to show the High Priority Items","excerpt":"I would like to add a formula that counts the number of 1 - High, 2 - Med, 3 - Low in each row.","snippet":"I would like to add a formula that counts the number of 1 - High, 2 - Med, 3 - Low in each row.","categoryID":322,"dateInserted":"2023-07-31T18:51:49+00:00","dateUpdated":null,"dateLastComment":"2023-07-31T19:48:33+00:00","insertUserID":121230,"insertUser":{"userID":121230,"name":"Kris Peeters","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Kris%20Peeters","photoUrl":"https:\/\/aws.smartsheet.com\/storageProxy\/image\/images\/u!1!zzjX8w2dwDY!5FVWucGjaaQ!-sgJ3Uz0EeO","dateLastActive":"2023-07-31T19:46:31+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"},"updateUserID":null,"lastUserID":121230,"lastUser":{"userID":121230,"name":"Kris Peeters","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Kris%20Peeters","photoUrl":"https:\/\/aws.smartsheet.com\/storageProxy\/image\/images\/u!1!zzjX8w2dwDY!5FVWucGjaaQ!-sgJ3Uz0EeO","dateLastActive":"2023-07-31T19:46:31+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":4,"countViews":29,"score":null,"hot":3381664822,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/108318\/count-to-show-the-high-priority-items","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/108318\/count-to-show-the-high-priority-items","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":108318,"commentID":388103,"name":"Re: Count to show the High Priority Items","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/388103#Comment_388103","dateInserted":"2023-07-31T19:48:33+00:00","insertUserID":121230,"insertUser":{"userID":121230,"name":"Kris Peeters","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Kris%20Peeters","photoUrl":"https:\/\/aws.smartsheet.com\/storageProxy\/image\/images\/u!1!zzjX8w2dwDY!5FVWucGjaaQ!-sgJ3Uz0EeO","dateLastActive":"2023-07-31T19:46:31+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Get Help","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/get-help"},{"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"image":{"url":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/382QSC10NTUW\/count-jpg.jpg","urlSrcSet":{"10":"","300":"","800":"","1200":"","1600":""},"alt":"count.JPG"},"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-07-31T19:48:14+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-07-31T19:18:51+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":388092,"body":"
