  • Status Determination (Column F): =IF(C2="", "Not Started", IF(AND(C2<=TODAY(), D2>=TODAY()), "In Progress", IF(TODAY()>D2, "Completed", "On Hold")))
  • Progress Percentage (Column G): =IF(F2="Completed", 100%, IF(F2="Not Started", 0%, IF(AND(C2<=TODAY(), D2>=TODAY()), (TODAY()-C2)/(D2-C2)*100, "N/A")))
  • Overdue Flag (Column H): =IF(AND(F2<>"Completed", D2

Conditional Formatting Rules
