Hello, Wondering if there is a good way to do this. I have over 20 columns that I’d like to clear to blank after a certain action has been executed (for example, after the column “status” has been set to “complete”).

I know that this can be accomplished through pairing actions, but this would mean creating over 20 “set the value of a column” actions.

Anybody know of a more efficient way?

You can go to each of 20 column’s app formula and write a formula to be blank when [Status] column is changed to “Complete” or You may write an Google Apps Script to handle it in the backend in Google Sheets.

Thanks for the response. Would the app formula work for those columns where there are user inputs? Such as a text column type.

@Jenn_M App Formula column wouldn’t be editable. You are right, may be better go with Google Apps Script
