=IF(Revenue_from_Report=0, 0, (Revenue_from_Report - Actual_Cost) / Revenue_from_Report). - Status Color Logic: Conditional formatting uses formulas like:

=Status="In Progress"
- Overdue:
- Dashboard Totals: Use SUMIFS, COUNTIFS, and AVERAGEIFS for aggregating data based on status, date ranges, or client.
