One more question. Is there a way in SS to calculate the distance between an address that a client provides (comes in from FillOut Form) and our office address? I would like to use that number to calculate a delivery fee.

format formula fields like in airtable: Format and decimal precision: See image

Many SmartSuite users are not from the US, but the DATE_FORMAT() formula only allows dates to be formatted in the MM/DD/YY format, instead of in DD/MM/YY.

Emma, I see you have a smart text field that can be inserted and then you can use AI. I have 5 fields that are all fun facts we like to ask about our staff. We then take those and make a 2-3 sentence bio on our site about them. Is it possible to have Smart Text use AI for each entry and have those 2-3 sentences built for us?

In my use case, I would like to utilize the sub-item field as an invoice table, but I can't gather accurate totals since I don't have the ability to add a formula field to sub-items.

Functions library needs a lot of love, but this I think should be top priority: a way to insert a line break in the text result of a formula. Can be done in many ways, e.g. a LINEBREAK() function could work. FileMaker defines the pilcrow ("¶") as a literal with this value, but most people don't know how to type a pilcrow. Airtable uses "\n" and this is widely used elsewhere (e.g. in regular expressions). Given number of people coming to SmartSuite from Airtable, perhaps that's the best approach.

I would love to have the ability to customize the date output format in formulas while still maintaining it as a date result type. This would make the data presentation more flexible and user-friendly.

Ability to have a boolean formula to check completion status of predecessors and return true if all predecessor are completed, false otherwise. If there are no predecessors defined it should probably return true. This could be useful to avoid complex formulas and generate a true/false field to know if the current task could proceed.

return a list of items with the specified separator between the items separator should support \t (tab) and \n (new line)

I greatly appreciate the platform's flexibility and powerful features. However, I've noticed a feature that could significantly enhance our data manipulation capabilities—namely, the inclusion of regex (regular expression) functionality in formulas, similar to what's available in Airtable. Regex is incredibly useful for finding, replacing, and extracting specific character patterns within data. This functionality would allow users to perform complex text operations directly within SmartSuite, such as searching for specific patterns, replacing text strings, and extracting information from larger text blocks. These capabilities would streamline workflows and increase productivity by making data manipulation more precise and efficient. I believe this addition would be a valuable enhancement for many users, myself included, and I would love to see it implemented in future updates.
