Advanced Formulas

- Daily Completion Rate:
=IFERROR(COUNTIFS(DailyLog!$B:$B, HabitInventory!A2, DailyLog!$C:$C, "Completed") / COUNTIF(DailyLog!$B:$B, HabitInventory!A2), 0) - Streak Count:
=MAX(FILTER(ROW(DailyLog!$A:$A), (DailyLog!$B:$B=HabitInventory!A2)*(DailyLog!$C:$C="Completed")*(DailyLog!$A:$A >= TODAY()-365)), 0) - Success Score:
=ROUNDUP((CompletionRate * 0.4 + StreakCount * 2 + EnergyEfficiencyBonus) * (1 - (TimeRequired/60)*0.1), 0) - Status Indicator: Conditional logic using nested IF statements and TODAY() for auto-status updates.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Habit Streak Color Coding: Green (≥5 days), Yellow (3–4 days), Red (<3 days)
