Formulas Required for Automation & Insight Generation

• Habit Completion Rate: =COUNTIFS(tblHabitsDaily[Status], "Completed", tblHabitsDaily[Date], ">="&DATE(2023,1,1), tblHabitsDaily[Date], "<="&TODAY()) / COUNTIF(tblHabitsDaily[Status],"<>""")
• Monthly Gross Profit: =SUMIFS(tblProfitPerformance[Gross Profit], tblProfitPerformance[Date], ">="&EOMONTH(TODAY(),-1)+1, tblProfitPerformance[Date], "<="&EOMONTH(TODAY(),0))
• Contribution Score (Weighted): =SUMIFS(tblHabitsDaily[Time Spent], tblHabitsDaily[Team Member], A2, tblHabitsDaily[Status], "Completed") * 0.5 + (COUNTIFS(tblHabitsDaily[Habit Category], "Client Outreach", tblProfitPerformance[Habit Contribution Code], "CH-01")) * 1
• Automated Goal Progress: =IF(AND(COUNTIF(tblHabitsDaily[Status],"Completed") >= 20, COUNTIF(tblHabitsDaily[Date], ">="&TODAY()-7) > 5), "On Track", "Needs Attention")

Conditional Formatting for Visual Insight

• Habit Status Column: - “Completed” → Green fill, checkmark icon. - “Skipped” → Red fill, X icon. - “In Progress” → Yellow highlight.
