Table Structures and Columns (Daily Tracker)

The main table in the Daily Tracker sheet is a structured Excel Table with the following columns:

Formulas Required

• Daily Completion Rate: =COUNTIF(Status, "Yes") / COUNTA(Status) – Calculated in the Weekly Summary sheet.
• Average Habit Score per Day: =AVERAGEIFS([Habit Score], [Date], TODAY())
• Order Fulfillment Status: =IF([Due Date] <= TODAY(), IF([Status]="Yes", "On Time", "Late"), "Pending")
• Habit Streak Counter: Uses a dynamic formula to count consecutive days where the habit was checked, based on date sequence and status.
• Weekly Habit Score Average: =AVERAGEIFS(HabitScore, Date, ">="&WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)-6, Date, "<="&WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2))

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Green Highlight: Days where all assigned habits for the day are marked “Yes” – indicates strong productivity.
• Amber Warning: Orders with priority "High" and due date within 2 days, but status is still “No”.
• Red Alert: Habit score below 3 for more than two consecutive days – signals potential habit lapse.
• Date-Based Color Scale: Due dates in the past turn red; upcoming dates (next 7 days) turn yellow; distant deadlines are gray.
