Total Cost Calculation: In the "Supply List Details" sheet: =IF(Quantity_Required<>"", Quantity_Required * Cost_per_Unit, 0)

Status Auto-updating: Use nested IF with TODAY() function:

=IF(Delivery_Date=TODAY(), Delivery_Date<=TODAY()+7), "On-Time", 
   IF(ORDER_DATE


        Vendor Rating Lookup: Use VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP to pull average rating from the Vendor Information sheet.
        Budget Utilization %: In the Supply Overview dashboard: 
            =SUM('Supply List Details'!K:K)/Total_Budget*100



    Conditional Formatting Rules
    - **Delivery Date Status**:
        - Red fill if Delivery Date is in the past and status ≠ "Received"
        - Yellow fill if Delivery Date is within 7 days and status ≠ "Shipped" or "Received"
        - Green fill if Delivery Date is more than 7 days ahead
    - **Total Cost Highlighting**:
        - If Total Cost exceeds budget allocation for a category, apply red border
    - **Status Column**:
        - Use color-coded icons (Red X for Delayed, Green Checkmark for Received)
    - **Campaign Deadline Overlap**:
        Apply conditional formatting to highlight rows where campaign start date is within 5 days of delivery date.
