Table Structure – To-Do List Manager Sheet

This primary sheet uses a structured Excel table format for dynamic data handling. The table spans from A1 to I500 (with automatic expansion).

Formulas Required

• ID Number (A2): =ROW()-1 (auto-increments with each new row)
• Status Update Logic: Uses IF and DATE formulas to auto-set "Overdue" if Due Date is before Today and Status ≠ "Completed".
• Completion Date (H2): =IF(G2="Completed", TODAY(), "") – auto-fills when status changes.
• Task Aging: =TODAY()-F2 to show how many days a task has been overdue or pending.
• Status Color Coding: Conditional formatting rules tied to Status value (see below).

Conditional Formatting

This Excel template leverages visual cues for quick comprehension—critical in a "Manager View" perspective:

• Overdue Tasks: Background color: Red. Text: White. Triggered when Due Date is before today and Status ≠ Completed.
• High Priority Tasks: Background: Light Red with bold text. Automatically highlighted on the Dashboard.
• Status Columns: Color-coded background based on status:
  • Pending: Light Gray
  • In Progress: Yellow
  • Completed: Green
  • Overdue: Bright Red
• Due Within 3 Days: Background turns Orange to flag upcoming deadlines.
