Table Structure and Columns

Data Types and Column Specifications:

• Category: Text (dropdown list with predefined options: Operating Activities, Investing Activities, Financing Activities).
• Description: Text (up to 100 characters) to provide context for each transaction.
• Date: Date format (MM/DD/YYYY), validated to prevent invalid entries.
• Cash Inflow: Currency ($, 2 decimal places). Positive values only. Formula-based validation ensures no negative input.
• Cash Outflow: Currency ($, 2 decimal places). Positive values only. Automatically entered as negative in net flow calculation.
• Net Cash Flow: Calculated using a formula that sums inflows and outflows per line item.

Formulas Required

• =IF(AND(CashInflow>0, CashOutflow=0), CashInflow, IF(AND(CashOutflow>0, CashInflow=0), -CashOutflow, 0)): Calculates net cash flow per row.

• =SUBTOTAL(9,NetCashFlowRange): Dynamically updates subtotal rows while ignoring hidden rows (useful for filters).
• =CurrentBalance + NetChange: Links the net change to a running balance cell in the dashboard.

Conditional Formatting Highlights

• Negative Net Cash Flow Rows: Highlighted in red if the net flow is less than zero to draw immediate attention.
• Large Outflows: Cells with cash outflows exceeding $1,000 are shaded yellow to flag significant expenditures.
