iPad Pro Numbers problem

[IBMJunkman]

I have a sheet where column 1 has dates and the rest of the row is empty. Twice a day I put entries into the rest of the row. Sometimes when I open the sheet the data on the last row I entered is gone. But not the dates in column one.

Ideas? Is there a proper way to save the sheet before closing the app?

It should be autosaving. Are you sure you're opening the saved version? Are you saving to your iPad or to iCloud?

On the iPad. Sheet is old and has a name. Disappearing data happens randomly.

If there is a Save function where is it? In Excel there is the floppy icon that saves but leaves the sheet open. Don’t see something like that in Numbers.

As I mentioned and in the support article link, Numbers on ipadOS auto saves. There is no manual save command like there is for the macOS version. I would test by maybe leaving the document open for a few minutes after pasting in your data to see if it auto saves.
