All fields are validated to ensure data consistency, with dropdowns for status and text-based fields limited to predefined options.

FORMULAS REQUIRED FOR AUTOMATIC CALCULATIONS

The template utilizes several dynamic Excel formulas to automatically compute key metrics:

• =C5 * D5: Calculates total revenue per sale (Unit Price × Quantity Sold).
• =SUMIFS(E:E, F:F, "Closed Won") / COUNTIFS(F:F, "Closed Won") * 100: Computes average conversion rate for closed won deals.
• =VLOOKUP(B2, RegionMapping!A:B, 2): Maps date to region-specific performance indicators (e.g., holidays or seasonal trends).
• =SUMIFS(G:G, A:A, "Salesperson X"): Calculates total revenue by salesperson.
• =IF(ISBLANK(E2), "Missing", IF(E2="Closed Won", "✅", IF(E2="Closed Lost", "❌", "⚠️"))): Conditional display of deal status in summary views.

CONDITIONAL FORMATTING RULES

To enhance readability and highlight critical performance areas:

• Revenue Highlighting: Green fill for revenue > $10,000; Yellow for $5,000–$10,000; Red for below $5,000.
• Status Indicator: "Closed Won" in green; "Closed Lost" in red; "Pending" in orange.
• Conversion Rate Thresholds: Highlight rates above 90% in light blue and below 60% in red.
• Outlier Detection: Flag entries where quantity sold exceeds average by more than 3 standard deviations (using dynamic array formulas).
