- Status Count: Formula
=COUNTIF(DailyTaskTracker[Status], "Completed")used in Dashboards sheet to track progress. - Overtime Calculation: In Leave & Attendance Log:
=IF([@Hours] > 8, [@Hours] - 8, 0)to flag overtime hours. - Employee Assignment Lookup: Uses VLOOKUP or INDEX-MATCH to pull employee names and roles from the Employee Profile sheet based on ID.
- Priority Weighting: Assigns numeric values (High=3, Medium=2, Low=1) using a lookup table for performance analytics.
Conditional Formatting
To enhance visual clarity and improve decision-making:
- Task Status Colors: Red for “Not Started,” Yellow for “In Progress,” Green for “Completed”.
- Priority Highlighting: High-priority tasks are highlighted in red with bold text; medium in yellow; low in gray.
- Overdue Tasks: If a task’s due date is before today and status is not “Completed,” the row turns red.
- Overtime Rows: In the Attendance Log, any row with overtime > 2 hours is shaded in orange.
