• =IF([Current Quantity] <= [Minimum Threshold], "Low", IF([Current Quantity] = 0, "Out of Stock", "In Stock")) → Auto-updates status tags in stock log.
• =ROUND((Habits Completed Today / 5) * 10 + (Stock Accuracy Rate / 10), 2) → Calculates the Daily Productivity Score.
• =COUNTIF('Daily Habit Tracker'!C:C, "Yes") → Counts total completed habits per week.
