The Report Version ensures data is not only collected but also transformed into meaningful analytics for reflection, adjustment, and long-term improvement.
Overview of the Template
This Excel workbook combines robust data collection capabilities with advanced reporting features.

| Streak Tracker | Detailed view showing consecutive days of habit completion for each tracked behavior. |

Table Structures & Columns (Data Input Sheet)
The main data collection sheet is structured as a timeline-based table with the following columns:
| Column | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Date (A) | Date (YYYY-MM-DD) | Automatic date entry with validation. Users can input manually or use calendar picker. |
| Habit 1 – 10 (B to K) | Boolean (Yes/No or Checkbox) | Checkmark or "Yes" for completed habits. Default value: blank or "No". |
| Notes (L) | Text (Optional) | User can add context such as “Felt tired today” or “Completed early.” |
Data starts from row 3. Row 1 contains the template title, and Row 2 is the header row with column labels.
Formulas Required
The following formulas are pre-configured across sheets to automate data processing:
=IF(AND(ISDATE(A3), COUNTA(B3:K3)>0), "Valid", "Incomplete")
Used in Data Input sheet to validate entries.
=COUNTIF(B:B, "Yes") / COUNTA(A:A) * 100
Calculates overall habit completion percentage across all logs.
=MAX(FREQUENCY(IF(B3:B100="Yes", ROW(B3:B100)), IF(B3:B100<>"Yes", ROW(B3:B100))))
Array formula (Ctrl+Shift+Enter) to find maximum streak for Habit 1.
=TEXT(AVERAGE(ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISDATE(A:A), IF(B:B="Yes", 1, 0)))), "0.0%")
Calculates average success rate per habit (simplified with Excel’s new dynamic arrays).
Conditional Formatting
- Completed Habits: Green fill for cells marked "Yes" in Habit columns (B to K).
- Incomplete Days: Orange background if a date has no entries (blank in all habit columns).
- Habit Streaks: Highlight consecutive green days with blue gradient for streaks ≥5.
- Dates Outside Range: Red text for dates outside the current month or future dates (if validation is enabled).
