Comments in Smartsheets

One exciting part of Smartsheets is that you can communicate directly on the sheet using comments in the conversation bubbles on the left and the comment column.


Why are comments important?

Comments are a great way to asynchronously communicate with all team members the status of a specific line item, concerns or challenges that may be causing delays, and alert other team members that an action item has been triggered.


Comments in Action

When communicating with your copy editor, comments are a great way to highlight areas you'd like an editor to focus on, like citations or complicated language that needs ninessing or specific modules that are missing information and will be forwarded for review later. This is also a great spot to help editors understand the nuances of a client and/or an iPlan. Copy editors always check the comments section before starting a project.

DID YOU KNOW?
The weekly comments cell at the top of a project sheet has a tiny black triangle which means that the information you place in that particular cell is being pulled and fed into reports and the APL.
