Allowing users to add text on Matrix Column

Hi all, 

 

Is it possible to add a function for users to be able to add a text next to a row within a MATRIX chart? This scenario would be for someone who is checking multiple records within a MATRIX chart and wants to indicate completed records.

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi @MarvinGallo ,

 

There is an idea about that you can vote it up to make this feature coming sooner.

Hi @v-frfei-msft ,

 

That looks like a different function, what I'm looking for is for users to be able to essentially free text right on a MATRIX dashboard. 

 

Ideally, it would be something like this:

 

Column1 | Column 2 | Column 3

   Item     |  Item ID    | Box for free text

   Tools   |    01548     | Users can type or checkmark to indicate a record was reviewed
