The core table in the "Habit Tracker (Daily)" sheet is structured for clarity and scalability:

Formulas and Automation
The template uses dynamic formulas across sheets to ensure real-time updates and accuracy: - **Auto-fill Date:** `=TODAY()` in the first row (locked for user safety) with conditional formatting. - **Habit Completion Rate:** On the Dashboard, formula: `=ROUND((COUNTIF(HabitTracker[Completed?], "TRUE") / COUNTA(HabitTracker[Completed?])) * 100, 1)` - **Monthly Summary Formula (in Monthly Summary sheet):** `=SUMIFS('Habit Tracker (Daily)'!$E:$E, 'Habit Tracker (Daily)'!$A:$A, ">= "&DATE(2024,4,1), 'Habit Tracker (Daily)'!$A:$A, "<= "&EOMONTH(DATE(2024,4,1),0))` - **Team Performance Score:** `=IF(COUNTIF(HabitTracker[Team Member], "Sarah")>0, (COUNTIFS(HabitTracker[Completed?], "TRUE", HabitTracker[Team Member], "Sarah") / COUNTIF(HabitTracker[Team Member], "Sarah")), 0)`Conditional Formatting
- Daily Completion Status: Green fill for completed habits (checkbox = TRUE), red for incomplete.
- Dates: Highlight weekends in light gray to visually separate workdays.
- Monthly Average Progress: Use color scales (green-yellow-red) on the Dashboard to show performance trends over time.
- Habit Frequency Alerts: If a habit is skipped for 3 consecutive days, trigger a red border with data validation message: "Habit neglected—review notes."
