Table Structures and Columns

The primary table in the "Weekly Log" sheet contains detailed records of all maintenance activities. Each row represents a single maintenance task performed on a specific client during the week.

The "Client Reference" sheet contains static client data such as: Client ID, Contact Person, Email, Phone Number, Address, Service Agreement Start/End Dates.

Formulas Required

• Week Start Date Formula:

  =IF(ISBLANK(A2),"",A2-WEEKDAY(A2,3)+1)

  This formula calculates the Monday of the week containing each date.
• Auto-Fill Client Name Dropdown: Using Data Validation with a list from "Client Reference!B:B" to ensure consistency.
• Status Count Formula (in Maintenance Summary):

  =COUNTIF('Weekly Log'!K:K,"Completed")

  Counts completed tasks per week for reporting.
• Time Tracking Summary:

  =SUM('Weekly Log'!J:J)

  Total technician hours worked per week.
• Prioritization Ratio:

  =COUNTIF('Weekly Log'!M:M,"High") / COUNTA('Weekly Log'!M:M)

These formulas are automatically updated when new entries are made, ensuring real-time data accuracy for client reporting.
