Formulas Required
The template uses a combination of dynamic formulas across sheets:

- DATEDIF: Calculates tenure (years of service) based on Hire Date.
- COUNTIFS / SUMIFS: Aggregates attendance and leave data by department/date.
- NETWORKDAYS: Excludes weekends when calculating leave days.
- SUMPRODUCT + IF: For weighted performance scores or task completion rates.
Conditional Formatting
To enhance readability and alertness, the following rules are applied:
- Red font: For "Absent" or "Late" status in Daily Attendance Log.
- Green fill: For "Done" tasks in Performance Tracker.
- Pink highlight: Employees with more than 5 consecutive days of overtime.
- Bold red text: Leave requests with approval status “Pending” after 24 hours.
User Instructions
- Ensure the "Employee Information Master" sheet is populated first with all employee data.
- Use the dropdown menus to maintain consistency in entries (e.g., Department, Status).
- Enter daily attendance and tasks at the end of each workday or shift for accurate reporting.
- The "Executive Summary Report" updates automatically based on new input.
- Do not delete or rename any columns in the Master sheet—this breaks linked formulas.
