Formulas Required

The template leverages advanced Excel formulas for automation and data integrity:

Calculate Duration: =IF(End_Date="", "", End_Date - Start_Date)
Auto-Calculate End Date: =Start_Date + Duration_days
Progress from Status: =IF(Status="Not Started", 0, IF(Status="In Progress", 50, IF(Status="Completed", 100, IF(Status="Delayed", 75, 0))))
Overdue Flag: =IF(AND(End_Date"Completed"), "Yes", "No")
Timeline Column (for Gantt Chart): =IF(AND(TODAY() >= Start_Date, TODAY() <= End_Date), 1, 0) used for visual timeline overlay.

Overdue Tasks: Highlight rows where "Overdue Flag" = "Yes" using red fill with white text.
Progress Indicators: Apply a color scale (green → yellow → red) to the "Progress (%)" column based on values.
Status Colors: Use data bars or icon sets for Status column (e.g., ❌, ⏳, ✅).
