Sheet 3: Project Timeline & Dependencies

This sheet uses a timeline matrix with start/end dates and dependency arrows. It integrates with the Task Tracker via lookup formulas to visualize overlapping work and critical paths using conditional formatting.

Key Formulas Required

=IF(AND(DueDate"Completed"), "Overdue", IF(Status="Completed", "Done", "Active")) – Auto-updates task status.
=COUNTIFS(TaskTracker!$C:$C, EmployeeAssignments!A2, TaskTracker!$H:$H, "<>Completed") – Counts active tasks per employee.
=IF(ISBLANK(Start_Date), "", IF(Start_Date<=TODAY(), IF(Due_Date – Tracks project health.


            =VLOOKUP(TaskID, TaskTracker!$A:$K, 5, FALSE) – Pulls priority level based on task ID in other sheets.
            =SUMPRODUCT((TaskTracker!$H:$H="Completed")*1)/COUNTA(TaskTracker!$A:$A)*100 – Calculates overall completion rate for KPI Dashboard.



    
        Conditional Formatting Rules
        
            Overdue Tasks: Red fill with white text, bold font.
            Urgent Priority: Bright yellow background with dark red border.
            Above Average Completion (%): Green gradient shading in the KPI Dashboard.
            Dependency Blocked: Orange highlight if a task has "Depends On" but its parent is not yet completed.
