Sheet Names

• Invoice & Employee Management (Main): The central sheet that contains all tables, formulas, formatting, and data. This single sheet houses everything required for the functionality.

Table Structures

The main sheet contains three primary table structures:

1. Employee Information Table: Located in the top-left portion (A1:F10), this section stores key details about each employee involved in the invoiced service.
2. Invoice Line Items Table: Positioned below (A14:G25), this table lists specific services rendered by employees, including hours, rates, and subtotals.
3. Invoice Summary & Header: Found in the top-right quadrant (H1:M10), this section includes client details, invoice number, date range for services rendered, and calculated totals.

Columns and Data Types

Formulas Required

• Daily Rate Lookup: In the Line Items table, column C uses: =VLOOKUP(B2, EmployeeInfo!A:F, 4, FALSE) to pull rates from the employee data.
• Subtotal Calculation: =SUM(E18:E25) sums all line item totals.
• Tax Rate: A default 10% tax is applied via: =H14*0.1 (can be edited in a settings cell).
• Due Date: =I2+14 applies standard "Net 14" payment terms.
• Employee ID Auto-Generation: If enabled, use =IF(A2="",MAX(A$2:A$10)+1,"") to auto-increment IDs in the Employee Info table.

Conditional Formatting

• Overdue Invoices: Highlight any Due Date (J) that is earlier than today using conditional formatting with formula: =J2
• Total Amount High Value: Apply green highlight to cells in column F (Total Amount) where the value exceeds $1,000.
• Empty Fields: Highlight blank entries in critical fields like Name, Daily Rate, or Days Worked with yellow background.

Instructions for the User

1. Filling Employee Data: Enter employee information in the "Employee Information" table (A1:F10). Use auto-incremented IDs or assign your own.
2. Add Invoice Items: In the Line Items table, enter each service rendered by an employee. Select their ID from the drop-down to automatically populate rate and name.
3. Customize Client Info: Fill in client name, contact email, and your company details in the top-right section.

Example Rows

Recommended Charts & Dashboards (One-Page Constraints)

Although strictly one-page, the following visual elements enhance clarity:

• Gauge Chart (Bottom Center): A mini gauge showing the percentage of the invoice paid if a payment date is recorded.
• Color-Coded Status Indicators: Use conditional formatting icons (e.g., ✔️ for completed, ⚠️ for overdue) next to Invoice #s.
