In Campaign Tracker, “Conversion Rate” = =IF([@Number of Leads]=0, 0, ([@Number of Leads]/[@Impressions])*100).
In Budget Sheet, “Total Spent to Date” uses a SUMIF formula: =SUMIFS([Amount Spent], [Category], [@Category]).
“Remaining Budget” = Allocated Budget minus Total Spent to Date.
Campaign Tracker: Negative ROI (Revenue < Cost) triggers red row highlight.
Budget Sheet: Remaining Budget below 10% of allocated budget → Red text on orange background.
