The template uses dynamic formulas to ensure data integrity and reduce manual effort:- Auto-generate Task ID:
=CONCATENATE("ASW-", TEXT(TODAY(),"YYYY-WW"), "-", TEXT(COUNTA(TaskIDColumn)+1,"00")) - Calculate Duration: In the Daily Log, use:
=IF(End_Timeto handle overnight tasks. - Status Update Logic: Use conditional formatting rules to highlight overdue tasks (e.g., if Due Date is before today and Status ≠ "Completed").
- KPI Calculations: Use dynamic range references with named ranges for accurate rolling calculations across weeks.
Conditional Formatting Rules
Apply the following formatting to enhance visual clarity:- Priority Level Color Coding: High = Red, Medium = Yellow, Low = Green.
- Status Indicator: "Completed" → Green checkmark; "Delayed" → Orange exclamation; "Overdue" → Red border + flashing icon.
- Deadline Countdown: Highlight cells where Due Date is within 24 hours with a pulsing yellow background.
- KPI Thresholds: If On-Time Completion Rate < 90%, apply red text; if ≥ 95%, use green text.
