Formulas Required

  • A2: =CONCAT("HM-", TEXT(ROW()-1,"000")) – Auto-generates Project ID.
  • F2: =IF(E2="", "", IF(TODAY() > E2, "Overdue", IF(TODAY() >= D2, "In Progress", "Not Started"))) – Status logic.
  • G2: =IF(F2="Overdue", 3, IF(F2="In Progress", 2, IF(F2="Not Started", 1, 0))) – Numeric status score.
  • H2: =DAYS(E2,DAY) – Days remaining (calculated from today).
  • I2: =IF(AND(D2<>"",E2<>""), ROUND((TODAY()-D2)/(E2-D2)*100, 0), 0) – Progress percentage.
  • J3: =COUNTIF(F:F,"Overdue") – Total overdue projects.
  • K3: =COUNTIF(F:F,"In Progress") – In progress count.
  • L3: =COUNTIF(F:F,"Not Started") – Not started count.

Conditional Formatting

  • Status Column (F): Color-coded—Red for "Overdue", Yellow for "In Progress", Green for "Not Started".
  • Days Remaining (H): Red if < 3 days, Orange if 3–7 days, Green otherwise.
  • Progress (%) (I): Color scale from red to green based on percentage completion.
