Re: Use Column Validation so that single text column requires an answer from a range of answers
Another update/question. I have to implement this column validation across other lists too, with much longer ranges. When I tried to do one of them, it said that the formula has to be 1024 characters or fewer. Is there any way to work around this? Or is this an organizational thing?15KViews0likes1CommentRe: Use Column Validation so that single text column requires an answer from a range of answers
Actually it works fine, sorry I just made a mistake. The field I was looking at does not have any items for one of the cascading dropdown options, thats why it appeared blank. The validation, in fact, does not affect cascading dropdowns, they both work fine.15KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Use Column Validation so that single text column requires an answer from a range of answers
Hi again. Just an update. The field that I wanted to use this for, has a cascading dropdown on the form (which is customized through power apps). When I put in the column validation formula, the choice selection in the cascading dropdown completely disappears, i.e the cascading dropdown shows no choices, it is completely blank. Do you know any solution to this? Thanks15KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Use Column Validation so that single text column requires an answer from a range of answers
ganeshsanap Hi Ganesh, thanks for your answer. Problem is, that it doesn't seem to work for me. The formula keeps returning #NAME? where variance driver is written. I have made sure that it is spelt exactly as it should be.15KViews0likes7CommentsUse Column Validation so that single text column requires an answer from a range of answers
Hi everyone, Hope you're well. I have a SharePoint list, and in it, one of the fields is a single text field (that is used for a cascading dropdown on the form). Some users, instead of using the form, will copy and paste lines of data from Excel straight into this SharePoint list, via grid view. This is if they have lots of data to put in where its too time consuming to fill out the form each time...they'd only want to use Excel for this. I need it so that the answer they put in for this particular single text field (called variance driver), has to be a specific answer from a specific range of answers. So for example, the 3 possible answers they should put in for 'variance driver' are machine costs, employee costs, tech costs. Users must put any one of these in, if they misspell it then the SharePoint list will flag it during grid view that they must enter them correctly. Is there some sort of column validation I could use for this? Have been trying but no progress so far. Appreciate your help.Solved19KViews0likes9CommentsHow to create a better overall view of a SharePoint List to see more items at once
Hi all, Hope you're well. I have a SharePoint List that I've created for colleagues and it replaces an old Excel template that we used to have. However, as good and efficient as the SharePoint List and its form is, one suggestion is to have a better view of the whole List and its items when using it. By that I mean, not having to zoom out all the time to have a larger scope of vision and to see more items/columns at once. I'm new to SharePoint Lists so does anyone have any suggestions on how to enable this? The main thing I'm doing at the moment is reducing the font size of all words and thus reduce the width of the column size, but I'd like to know if there is anything else I can do. Thanks in advance for any help!Solved6.3KViews0likes1CommentSpecific type of row on one worksheet to automatically appear on another worksheet
Hi everyone, Hope you're all well. I've created a workbook that is synced with a sharepoint list (via the 'Get Data' option on the ribbon). The first worksheet is brought over from the sharepoint list and contains a big list of savings or costs for each business line for each quarter for 2022 as well as the year totals for 2022, 23 and 24 etc. Alongside this, I'm planning for each business line to have its own worksheet (essentially each business line will have its own designated worksheet), where the rows for a business line, from the original worksheet, are brought over to that business line's designated worksheet, but this time there is an annual business line budget at the top of the table for each of these worksheets and a cumulative frequency column that adjusts the budget after each row of savings/costs is added. Now, I want to know, after a new row for a business line is added to the first worksheet, is there a way for it to automatically appear in that business line's designated worksheet? Thanks in advance for any help offered 🙂547Views0likes0CommentsFormatting a column into negative numbers based on response from another column
Hi everyone, hope you're well. I have a sharepoint list where several of the columns are in multiple choice format. There is one such column, where there are 4 choices. One of these choices is O. After these columns, there are non multiple choice columns where the user has to manually enter a number. I want it to be so that on the non multiple choice columns, where the user enters a number, the number automatically becomes a negative number if, on that same row, on the previous aforementioned column, the user chooses O. Is this possible? Of course, they can just enter a negative number themselves, but given how fast and frequently they have to enter these numbers, a few times it can be subject to human error, and so I'm looking to find out if the above is possible. I'm fairly new to sharepoint. Thanks in advance for your help 🙂Solved
