  • Hi there! This is super helpful, my team loves it. Can you please help me understand the “SELECTED” column of the sheet and why it is there?

  • This is super useful! The only annoying bit is that even when I want to filter using the slicers I get a notification saying ‘You’re trying to edit part of this sheet that shouldn’t be changed accidentally. Edit anyway?’

    Is there a way to remove that?

    • Thank you for showing interest in our template and sharing your valuable feedback.

      The warning is shown because, we have protected the last 4 columns which has formulas from getting deleted accidently. To remove the protection, Goto Data ribbon -> Select Protect sheet and ranges -> Delete the 4 range that are protecting the last four columns (On h-over on the each protected range, you will be able see the range that is protected with Green Border in the sheet).

      Best wishes.
