Can't Edit or Delete "Send as Attachment" Recurrence

Hi all,

I have been assigned to take over the maintenance of a sheet. There are currently 3 "Send as Attachment" recurrences that I want to remove as they are no longer needed. When I click on a scheduled recurrence, the options of "Edit Recurrence" and "Delete" are not clickable. I am the Admin on this sheet and the Owner of sheet also tried but gets the same result. Does anyone know how I can remove or edit these recurrences? Thanks in advance!

    Hi@BristolCVN

    It sounds like you're looking at the Sheet's recurrence window but that at some point someone created a second Smartsheet item, a Report, and set up the recurrence from theReportand not the Sheet.

    What's the Report name in the email? You may not be shared to it, so you may need to ask the Owner to share to you the Report so you can delete the workflow from there. See:Share a Report as an Attachment in Email

    Cheers,

    Genevieve

    Hi@BristolCVN

    The log on the right hand side also keeps track ofsentoccurrences. If you're unable to click "delete" it's likely because that's a log of a past automation that already sent out. In this case it looks like your three were sent in 2021.

    You can tell if it's a recurring / future one because it will have two arrows in a circle and there won't be a sent date, like so:

  • Hi Genevieve,

    Thanks for the response, however, the owner is still receiving recurrence emails and there are no active workflows for notifications.

  • I have also noticed that if I select "Send as an attachment" the body says "I've attached a copy of my sheet to review". The owner forwarded me an email from the most recent recurrence and the body says "I've attached a copy of my report for your review". I'm trying to find the recurrence that refers to the "report" but there aren't any active workflows for that.

Sorry, I misread your post originally and gave instructions for hiding. I was editing my post while you were replying.<\/p>

I believe you have to right-click a column header, and select \"unhide all columns\".<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":107225,"type":"question","name":"Reminder Notification","excerpt":"Hi , i would like to see how can we setup reminder on fixed month and date every year.","snippet":"Hi , i would like to see how can we setup reminder on fixed month and date every year.","categoryID":321,"dateInserted":"2023-07-05T10:36:35+00:00","dateUpdated":"2023-07-05T11:38:19+00:00","dateLastComment":"2023-07-05T16:34:30+00:00","insertUserID":155444,"insertUser":{"userID":155444,"name":"TW1127","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/TW1127","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-07-05T16:34:19+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"updateUserID":91566,"lastUserID":155444,"lastUser":{"userID":155444,"name":"TW1127","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/TW1127","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-07-05T16:34:19+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":2,"countViews":37,"score":null,"hot":3377129465,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/107225\/reminder-notification","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/107225\/reminder-notification","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":107225,"commentID":383769,"name":"Re: Reminder Notification","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/383769#Comment_383769","dateInserted":"2023-07-05T16:34:30+00:00","insertUserID":155444,"insertUser":{"userID":155444,"name":"TW1127","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/TW1127","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-07-05T16:34:19+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Get Help","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/get-help"},{"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-07-05T16:34:15+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-07-05T12:08:47+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":383697,"body":"
