Formulas Required
The template leverages advanced Excel functions to automate calculations:- Dynamic Dashboard Totals:
=SUMIF(MonthlyActivityLog!$C:$C, "Client A", MonthlyActivityLog!$E:$E)– sums total time spent with a specific client. - Status Color Coding: Uses
=IF(ProjectsTracker!F2=100%, "Complete", IF(ProjectsTracker!F2>=80%, "On Track", IF(ProjectsTracker!F2<=30%, "At Risk", "In Progress"))). - KPI Variance & Trend Analysis:
=IFERROR((ThisMonthActual - ThisMonthTarget)/ThisMonthTarget, 0)for percentage variance. - Auto-Generated Project ID: Uses a formula like
=CONCATENATE("C-", YEAR(TODAY()), "-", TEXT(MONTH(TODAY()), "00"), "-", COUNTA(ProjectTracker!A:A)+1).
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Project Status: Green for 100%, yellow for 80–99%, red for ≤79%. - KPI Variance: Red text if variance > +5%; green if ≤ -5%; blue otherwise. - Overdue Milestones: Highlight in red if “Next Milestone” date is earlier than today’s date and status ≠ Completed. - Daily Time Spent: Highlight rows where duration > 4 hours with yellow background.User Instructions
