Formulas Required for Automation and Tracking

To maintain accuracy and automate status updates, the following formulas are embedded:

• Status Synchronization (Weekly Tracking Log): =VLOOKUP(A2, 'Chores & Responsibilities'!A:G, 5, FALSE) – Pulls chore status from master list.
• Overdue Checker: =IF(AND([Due Date]"Completed"), "Yes", "No") – Flags overdue tasks.
• Weekly Completion Rate: =COUNTIF(DailyStatusRange, "Completed") / COUNTA(DailyStatusRange) * 100 – Calculates percentage of completed chores per week.
• Duplicate Detection: =COUNTIF(ChoreID_Column, A2)>1 – Alerts if a chore ID is repeated (helpful in preventing accidental duplication).
• Total Time Spent Per Employee: Use SUMIFS to total time spent per person across all completed chores.

Conditional Formatting Rules

The template applies visual cues for quick readability and trend spotting:

• Overdue Chores: Red fill with black text if due date has passed and status is not "Completed".
• Pending Tasks: Yellow highlight to draw attention.
• Completed Tasks: Green background with a checkmark icon (using conditional icons).
• Daily Status Column: Color-coded: Red for "Not Started", Orange for "In Progress", Green for "Completed".
• Daily Completion Rate Gauge: A traffic light-style conditional format in the dashboard cell (Red/Yellow/Green based on percentage).
