Formulas Required

=IF(D2="Yes",1,0) – Converts "Yes" in Completed? column to 1 for calculation.
=SUM(E:E)/COUNTIF(D:D,"Yes") – Calculates average habit completion time (use with care; better: sum of completed days / total days).
=B2 - (C2 * D2) – For interest calculation per day if using simple daily interest.
=IFERROR(SUM(F:F), 0) – Totals all payments made to date.
=SUMIFS($G:$G, $B:$B, ">= " & MIN($B:$B), $B:$B, "<= " & MAX($B:$B)) – Sums payments within a specific range (for dashboard).
=ROUND((H2 / 30) * 100, 2) – Calculates daily habit completion percentage across months.
=IF(AND(COUNTIFS($B:$B, "<=" & EOMONTH(TODAY(), -1), $D:$D, "Yes") >= COUNTIFS($B:$B, "<=" & EOMONTH(TODAY(), -1)), (E2 / F2) >= 0.8), "On Track", "Needs Focus") – Advanced progress evaluation.

Conditional Formatting Rules

Habit Tracker: Color cells green if “Completed?” = Yes; red if No and date is past today.
Loan Payments: Highlight overdue payments in yellow if payment date is past and payment not recorded.
Daily Habit Score: Use data bars to show progress over time (e.g., 70% completed = 70% bar filled).
Dashboard Summary: Conditional color scale for “Average Daily Habit Score” – green > 85%, yellow 60–84%, red <60%.
