Automated Client Intake & Workspace Management
By Lighthouse Consultings
This solution streamlines onboarding by combining accessible intake with standardized Smartsheet provisioning. A request form reachable via a shareable link or QR code captures essential details and automatically creates a dedicated Smartsheet sheet from a predefined template. Each new sheet is dynamically named based on submitted identifiers (such as client name, request ID, or project reference), making it easy to recognize and manage at scale. The copied sheet retains all predefined structure, forms, and automations from the template, while generating a unique, private URL for each instance. This ensures every client or request has its own secure workspace without additional setup.

From Manual Setup to Self-Serve Intake with Standardized Smartsheet Workspaces
Many onboarding processes fail in the handoff between “request received” and “work ready to execute.” Teams spend time copying templates, renaming files, reconfiguring forms, and ensuring the right automations are still in place, often repeating the same setup steps for every new request. This solution removes that friction entirely. Each intake submission triggers the creation of a new Smartsheet sheet that inherits all predefined logic, automations, forms, and structure from a governed template. The sheet is automatically named using submitted identifiers and assigned its own unique URL, creating a private, self-contained workspace for that client or request. Teams gain consistency and speed without sacrificing clarity, traceability, or data separation.
Each newly created Smartsheet sheet is automatically named based on intake data, such as client name, project ID, or request reference. This makes it easy to identify and manage workspaces even as volume grows, without manual renaming or cleanup.
New sheets are created by copying a standardized Smartsheet template that already includes the required columns, forms, and automations. This ensures every onboarding follows the same governed structure while remaining fully functional from the moment it’s created.
Each provisioned sheet has its own unique URL, creating a private workspace for the associated client, project, or request. This supports clear separation of data and enables secure sharing without exposing information from other onboardings.
