Multi-Page Excel Template for Employee Management Using a Chore Chart System

Sheet Names and Their Purposes

1. Employee Master List: Central repository of all employee data including names, roles, departments, contact details, and working hours.
2. Daily Chore Assignments: Dynamic sheet where tasks are assigned on a daily basis. Each row represents a task; each column reflects an employee’s assignment status.
3. Weekly Performance Dashboard: Aggregates performance metrics for the week, including completion rates and overdue tasks per employee.
4. Monthly Summary & Review: Consolidates weekly data to generate monthly reports for evaluations, recognition, and performance improvement planning.
5. Chore Library: A master catalog of all possible tasks (e.g., "Update CRM", "Clean Workstation", "Respond to Emails") with categorization by type and frequency.
6. Admin Controls & Formulas: Hidden sheet used for internal calculations, formula logic, and dynamic data validation rules. Not intended for direct user input but critical for functionality.

Formulas Required for Functionality

• Auto-populate Task Description:
  =VLOOKUP(Task ID, Chore Library!A:D, 2, FALSE)
• Completion Rate Calculation (Dashboard):
  =IF(Total Assigned=0, 0%, Completed/Total Assigned)
• Overdue Task Counter:
  =COUNTIFS(Daily Chore Assignments!$B:$B, $A2, Daily Chore Assignments!$E:$E, "Overdue")
• Auto-Generate Date:
  =TODAY() used in Daily Chore Assignments sheet to set date automatically.
• Data Validation for Status Dropdown:
  Use Data > Data Validation > List with options: "Pending", "In Progress", "Completed", "Overdue".

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Red fill & bold text: Tasks marked “Overdue” (if due date is earlier than today).
• Green background: Status = “Completed”.
• Yellow highlight: Status = “In Progress”.
• In the Dashboard, red bars in completion rate if below 80% threshold.

User Instructions

1. Begin by populating the Employee Master List with all team members.
2. Add standard chores to the Chore Library, including frequency and duration.
