Habit Tracker Sheet Structure

Required Formulas

• Daily Habit Streak Count: In the Dashboard sheet, use =IF(HabitTracker[Completed?]="Yes", 1, 0) and a running sum via =SUMIFS(HabitTracker[Completed?], HabitTracker[Date], ">="&TODAY()-6) to calculate the last 7 days’ success rate.
• Total Sales Value (Closed Won): =SUMIFS(SalesLog[Potential Deal Value ($)], SalesLog[Closed Won?], TRUE)
• Conversion Rate: =COUNTIF(SalesLog[Status], "Closed Won") / COUNTA(SalesLog[Status])
• Daily Habits Average: =AVERAGEIF(HabitTracker[Habits Completed], ">0")
• Streak Counter (Days in a Row): Uses a complex formula combining DATE, IF, and COUNT functions to determine consecutive days of habit completion.

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Habit Tracker: Color-coded cells with green fill for "Yes", red for "No". Use data bars to show frequency over time.
• Sales Log: Highlight rows in yellow if Status is “Closed Lost” and in green if “Closed Won”. Apply icon sets to show activity intensity (e.g., 1–5 stars based on tasks completed).
• Dashboard: Use color scales for KPIs: red (< 70%), yellow (70–90%), green (>90%) for conversion rates and habit consistency.
