Table Structures and Columns (Weekly Chore & Task Log)

The primary tracking sheet, Weekly Chore & Task Log, is structured as a dynamic table with the following columns:

Formulas Required

The template leverages dynamic formulas to automate tracking and provide insights:

• Status Summary Formula:
  =IF(COUNTIFS(Status_Column, "Completed", Date_Column, ">="&TODAY()-7), COUNTIFS(Status_Column, "Completed", Date_Column, ">="&TODAY()-7), 0)
  Calculates completed tasks in the last 7 days.
• Completion Rate:
  =IFERROR(COUNTIFS(Status_Column, "Completed") / COUNTA(Status_Column), 0)
  Computes percentage of completed tasks vs. total assigned.
• Overdue Tasks Counter:
  =COUNTIFS(Status_Column, "Pending", Due_Time_Column, ">"&NOW(), Date_Column, "<="&TODAY())
  Flags tasks due but not yet completed on time.
• Color Code Status (Used with Conditional Formatting):
  A custom formula evaluates the status and triggers color logic.

Conditional Formatting Rules

The template includes intelligent conditional formatting to enhance readability:

• Status Highlighting: Red for "Missed", Green for "Completed", Yellow for "In Progress".
• Overdue Tasks: Background color turns red if the current date is past the due time and task is not marked as completed.
• Daily Summary: Conditional formatting on the Client Dashboard to highlight days with 100% task completion in green.
• Milestone Alerts: If a goal in the Education Milestones Tracker is overdue, it appears in bold and red.
