The template includes several key formulas for automation and accuracy:- Total Price ($):
=Quantity * Unit_Price - Processing Time (Days):
=IF(Actual_Delivery_Date <> "", Actual_Delivery_Date - Date_Ordered, "Not Delivered") - Order Status Indicator: Uses nested IF statements to color-code statuses (e.g., red for "Cancelled", green for "Delivered")
- Revenue by Month (Dashboard):

=COUNTIF(Status_Column,"Delivered")/COUNTA(Status_Column) - PivotTables on Status Summary sheet automatically update with new data
