Monthly Sales Trend (Dashboard): Uses a dynamic array formula to pull monthly data and compute growth rate compared to previous month.

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual clarity and help users quickly identify key trends or issues, the template applies conditional formatting across several sheets:

Sales Log: Sales with revenue over $100 are highlighted in green; refunds appear in red.
Dashboard: KPIs above target are shown in bright green; below target are in orange.
