Quickly Create Many Columns in Smartsheet

SSFeatures makes it super easy to create lots of columns at once. This saves you a ton of time, especially when you need to build big sheets.

The Problem

Smartsheet doesn’t let you create more than one column at a time. For example, if you want to make 12 columns for each month, you have to do it one by one. That means clicking, typing, and repeating… over and over again. It's a slow process.

The Solution with SSFeatures

SSFeatures adds a Bulk Create Columns button to Smartsheet. Click the button, and a popup appears. Just type in a list of column names (one per line), and click OK.

You can also choose what type of column to create, like Text/Number, Dropdown, or Checkbox. You can even set the same formula for all of the columns.

If you're building big sheets or using the same structure across many sheets, this feature will save you hours of work.
