Excel Template Description: Client Reporting Home Template (One Page)

This Excel template is specifically designed for Client Reporting purposes within a professional services, consulting, or project management environment. As a Home Template, it serves as the central hub for summarizing client engagement data, performance metrics, and key milestones in a single, easy-to-navigate page. The One Page design ensures that all critical information is condensed into a visually engaging and actionable format—perfect for executives, account managers, or service delivery leads who need to quickly grasp client status at a glance.

Sheet Names

• Overview (Home): The central dashboard page that consolidates all key reporting metrics.
• Data Source: A hidden or protected sheet containing raw data from various sources (e.g., project tracking, time logs, CRM integrations) that feed into the dashboard.

Table Structures and Data Layouts

The template is built around two core table structures on the Overview sheet:

1. Client Summary Table (Top Section): Displays high-level client data including name, engagement type, start date, current phase, and overall health score.
2. KPIs & Metrics Dashboard (Middle Section): Contains key performance indicators such as project completion rate, on-time delivery percentage, client satisfaction score (CSAT), revenue growth vs. target, and upcoming deliverables.
3. Upcoming Milestones & Tasks Table (Bottom Section): Lists time-bound activities with deadlines and responsible team members.

Columns and Data Types

Formulas Required

The template relies on dynamic formulas to ensure real-time updates and data accuracy:

• Health Score Calculation (Cell B10): =IF(AND([@CompletionRate]>=90%, [@OnTimeDelivery]>=85%, [@CSAT]>=8), 5, IF(AND([@CompletionRate]>=75%, [@OnTimeDelivery]>=70%), 4, IF(AND([@CompletionRate]>=60%, [@OnTimeDelivery]>=60%), 3, IF([@CompletionRate]<60%, 2, 1))))
• Project Completion Rate: =COUNTIF(DataSource[Status], "Completed") / COUNTA(DataSource[Task]) * 100
• On-Time Delivery %: =COUNTIFS(DataSource[Status], "Completed", DataSource[Actual Date], "<="& DataSource[Due Date]) / COUNTA(DataSource[Task]) * 100
• Revenue vs Target: =SUMIFS(DataSource[Invoice Amount], DataSource[Client], [@Client Name]) - TARGET_REVENUE
• Status Indicator Conditional Logic: Uses nested IF statements with VLOOKUP to pull status from data source.

Conditional Formatting Rules

To enhance visual clarity and enable quick interpretation, the following conditional formatting rules are applied:

• Health Score Column:
  • 5 → Green background (excellent)
  • 4 → Light green
  • 3 → Yellow
  • 2 or below → Red background with white text (urgent attention needed)
• Milestones Table - Due Date Column:
  • If date is within 7 days: Orange highlight
  • If past due: Bold red font with strikethrough
• KPIs Dashboard - Percentage Columns:
  • Greater than 90% → Green text and arrow up icon
  • Betweem 75%–89% → Yellow
  • Lt. 75% → Red with down arrow
• Revenue vs Target:
  • + values: Green with upward arrow
  • - values: Red with downward arrow
