Formulas Required

The template uses dynamic formulas to ensure data consistency and automation:

• Employee ID Auto-Generation: =IF(ISBLANK(A2), "EMP" & TEXT(COUNTA(A:A)+1, "000"), A2)
• Status Indicator (Dashboard): =IF(VLOOKUP(B2, EmployeeDirectory!$A:$K, 6, FALSE)="Active", "🟢 Active", "🔴 Inactive")
• Average Performance Rating: =AVERAGEIF(EmployeeReviews!$A:$A, B2, EmployeeReviews!$C:$C)
• Total Absences (Monthly): =COUNTIFS(AttendanceTracker!$A:$A, B2, AttendanceTracker!$C:$C, "Absent")
• Net Pay Calculation: =G2 + (H2 * 1.5 * I2) - J2

To improve visual clarity and user experience, the following rules are applied:

• Employee Status: Green fill for "Active", Red for "Resigned/Terminated".
• Performance Rating: Color scale from red (1) to green (5).
• Late Arrivals: Yellow highlight if late by 15+ minutes.
