Formulas Required
- Status Tracker: Uses
=IF([@Due Date] - Owner Workload Counter: In the Team Assignments sheet:
=COUNTIF(Marketing_Inventory_Master[Owner (Team Member)], A2)to calculate how many assets each team member has assigned. - Campaign Phase Progress: Uses
=COUNTIFS(Marketing_Inventory_Master[Phase], "Completed", Marketing_Inventory_Master[Campaign ID], B2)/COUNTIF(Marketing_Inventory_Master[Campaign ID], B2)to determine campaign completion percentage. - Auto-Generate Campaign IDs: Uses
=CONCATENATE("CMP-", YEAR(TODAY()), "-", MID(MONTH(TODAY()),1,2), "-", TEXT(ROW()-1,"00"))for sequential ID generation.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Overdue Items: Applies red fill and bold text to rows where Due Date is earlier than today AND Status ≠ Completed.
- Priority High: Highlights rows with Priority Level = "High" using bright yellow background.
- Status Indicators: Color-codes status columns: Red for “Not Started”, Yellow for “In Progress”, Green for “Completed”.
