Table Structure & Columns
- Bill ID (Text/Number): Unique identifier for each bill (e.g., BIL-2024-001).

- Service Category (Dropdown): e.g., Marketing, Development, Consulting. Predefined values ensure consistency.

- Due Date (Date): Calculated as Billing Date + 30 days by default; editable for exceptions.
- Bill Amount (Currency): Numeric input with USD formatting.
- Paid Status (Dropdown): Options include "Pending", "Partially Paid", "Paid", and "Overdue".
- Payment Date (Date): When payment was received; blank if not yet paid.

- Notes (Text): Free-form field for comments or special instructions.
The table is set as a structured Excel Table named "tblBillTracker", enabling dynamic filtering, sorting, and automatic formula expansion when new rows are added.
Formulas Used in the Bill Tracker
- Due Date:
=IF([@Billing Date]="", "", [@Billing Date] + 30) - Outstanding Balance:

- Overdue Flag:
=IF(AND([@[Due Date]] - Late Fee Calculation: If Penalty Applied? = Yes, then Late Fee = Outstanding Balance × 1.5%
Conditional Formatting

- Paid Bills: Green background for entries where Payment Date has been filled.
