Table Structures & Columns

1. Tasks & Schedule Sheet

This sheet forms the backbone of the Gantt timeline. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-----------| | Task ID | Text/Number (Auto-incremented) | Unique identifier for each task (e.g., "OFS-001") | | Task Name | Text | Brief description of the office-related task (e.g., "Install New Office Furniture") | | Department Owner | Text/List (Dropdown) | Assigns responsibility to departments such as Facilities, HR, IT, Admin | | Start Date | Date | Actual or planned start date in YYYY-MM-DD format | | End Date | Date | Planned end date of the task | | Duration (Days) | Number (Calculated) | =End Date - Start Date + 1 | | Dependencies | Text/List (Multi-select or comma-separated) | Other Task IDs that must be completed before this can start (e.g., "OFS-002, OFS-005") | | Priority Level | Text/Dropdown (High, Medium, Low) | Indicates urgency for resource allocation |

2. Resource Allocation Sheet

Tracks who is assigned to each task and helps avoid overbooking. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-----------| | Task ID | Text/Number (Linked to Tasks & Schedule) | Reference to the main task | | Resource Name | Text | Employee name or equipment (e.g., "John Smith", "HVAC System") | | Role/Responsibility | Text | e.g., Project Lead, Technician, Coordinator | | Allocation (%) | Number (0–100) | Percentage of time devoted to this task | | Hours Allocated per Week | Number | Expected weekly effort |

Formulas Required

To enable automation and real-time updates:

Duration Calculation: =IF(AND(Start_Date<>"", End_Date<>""), End_Date - Start_Date + 1, "")
Progress Status Logic: Use conditional logic with IF and ISBLANK functions to auto-fill status based on dates/completion.
Dependency Validation: Use VLOOKUP or INDEX-MATCH to verify referenced Task IDs exist.
Gantt Bar Width (in Dashboard): In the Analysis View, calculate bar width using: =IF(AND(Start_Date<>"", End_Date<>""), (End_Date - Start_Date + 1) * 24, 0) for visual scaling.

Conditional Formatting

Enhances readability and alerts:

Overdue Tasks: Highlight rows where End Date is past today’s date using: =End_Date < TODAY()
High-Priority Tasks: Apply red fill for Priority = "High"
Progress Indicators: Use data bars in Status (%) column to visually represent completion levels.
Milestone Dates: Format cells where Task Name ends with “-M” (for milestone) with a star icon or special color.
