- 3. Historical Data & Reports: A secure, read-only archive of previous weeks’ entries with built-in reports for trend analysis and audit trails.

| Planned Budget ($) | Currency, 2 decimal places | Original approved budget allocation for this item. |
| Actual Spend ($) | Currency, 2 decimal places (Formula-enabled) | User-input field to record actual spending. Auto-calculated from invoice data or receipts. |

Required Formulas
The following formulas ensure accuracy, automation, and real-time feedback:- Budget Variance ($):
=IFERROR([@Planned Budget] - [@Actual Spend], 0) - Week Ending Date (Auto-Generated): Using the formula:
=TODAY()-MOD(TODAY()-1,7)to auto-set the week ending on Sundays. - Budget Utilization %:
=IF([@Planned Budget]=0, 0, [@Actual Spend]/[@Planned Budget]) - Overrun Warning (in Dashboard): Conditional logic to flag items where Actual Spend exceeds Planned by more than 10%.
Conditional Formatting Rules
Enhance visibility and risk detection using these rules:- Budget Variance: Red fill for negative values (overspending), green for positive (under budget).
- Compliance Status:
- Non-Compliant: Bright red background with black text.
- Pending Review: Yellow highlight, bold font.
- Compliant: Light green fill.
- Deadline Alerts: If "Compliance Deadline" is within 3 days, apply a blinking red border (using conditional formatting with custom formula).
