We use Monday to track the deliveries of content to us.
We have one board which contains a list of the suppliers, and then a second board where we add the delivered ‘packs’. We have connected the board and use that connection to add the supplier info to the 2nd board. What I woudl like to do is then count the number of packs supplied by each supplier and display that either on the first board, or separately in a dashboard. Is this possible using a formual column or some sort of integration?
You can do this natively with a bit of a twist. If you set up a number column, and then use the connection of the pack to the supplier to trigger an automation to add ‘1’ to the number column, you’ll get a count on the packs per supplier and can reflect it in a chart view or dashboard.
It won’t be perfect, because it’s based on when the column changes, so equally if you removed a pack connection the column would change and it would add to your count. But if your process is stable and consistent so can your numbers be.
There are likely other options for you, but I’d want to see your set up and what you’re doing.
Let me know if you want to connect.
