=IF([Last Performance Review Date]="","", [Last Performance Review Date]+365) - Count Active Employees: In Status Dashboard, use:
=COUNTIF(Employees!F:F,"Active")where F is the "Status" column. - Highlight Overdue Reviews: Use conditional formatting with formula:
=AND([Next Review Due]
Conditional Formatting
