Required Formulas

The template leverages advanced Excel functions for intelligent automation:

• Deal ID Auto-Generation: =CONCATENATE("DL-", TEXT(ROW()-1,"0000")) — Ensures unique, sequential IDs.
• Days Overdue (Dynamic): =IF(ISDATE([@[Compliance Deadline]]), IF([@[Compliance Deadline]] < TODAY(), TODAY() - [@[Compliance Deadline]], 0), 0)
• Compliance Health Score: =IF([@[Days Overdue]]=0, "Green", IF([@[Days Overdue]]<=7, "Yellow", "Red"))
• Pipeline Value by Stage: Use SUMIFS to aggregate deal values per sales stage.
• Last Updated Auto-Entry: Combine with VBA or Data Validation to auto-populate user name and timestamp on edit.
