Formulas Required

The template leverages Excel formulas to automate data processing and maintain accuracy.

=IF(Status="Completed", TODAY(), ""): Auto-fills the "Completion Date" when status is set to "Completed".
=COUNTIFS(ChoreLog!$F:$F, "Completed", ChoreLog!$B:$B, B2): Counts completed chores per assignee (used in Summary View).
=SUMPRODUCT((ChoreLog!$C:$C="Reception")*(ChoreLog!$E:$E="Completed")): Sums completed reception-related tasks.
=COUNTIF(ChoreLog!$F:$F, "Overdue"): Total number of overdue chores across the office.
=IF(TODAY()>DueDate, "Overdue", IF(Status="Completed", "On Time", "")): Dynamically flags overdue tasks based on current date.
=ROUND(COUNTIF(ChoreLog!$F:$F, "Completed")/COUNTA(ChoreLog!$B:$B)*100, 1)&"%": Calculates overall completion rate in Summary View.

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual clarity and promote accountability:

Overdue Chores (Red Fill + Bold): If Due Date is earlier than TODAY() and Status ≠ "Completed".
Completed Tasks (Green Checkmark): Applies green fill with icon set when status = "Completed".
High-Volume Assignees (Yellow Highlight): Highlights individuals who have more than 5 uncompleted chores.
Status Color Coding: Red (Overdue), Yellow (In Progress), Green (Completed).
Data Bars in Summary View: Visual bars showing relative performance between team members.
