Formulas Required

The template uses dynamic Excel formulas to automate tracking and reporting:

Task ID Auto-generation: =CONCAT("OM-TSK-", TEXT(ROW()-1, "000")) (placed in the first row of Task ID column).
Completion % Calculation: =IF(OR(Status="Completed", Status="Cancelled"), 100%, IF(ISBLANK(Completion%), 0%, Completion%)).
Overdue Indicator (in Department Tracker): =IF(AND(Due_Date"Completed"), COUNTIFS(Task_Details[Due Date], "<"&TODAY(), Task_Details[Status], "<>Completed")).
Task Count by Department: =COUNTIFS(Task_Details[Department], "HR") (used per department).
Average Task Duration: =AVERAGE(IF(Completion%=100%, Due_Date - Start_Date)) (array formula, entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter).
On-Time Completion Rate: =COUNTIFS(Task_Details[Due Date], ">="&TODAY(), Task_Details[Status], "Completed", Task_Details[Due Date], "<="&TODAY()) / COUNTIF(Task_Details[Status], "Completed").

Conditional Formatting

To enhance readability and highlight critical issues, the following formatting rules are applied:

Overdue Tasks (Due Date < Today): Red fill with white text.
High Priority Tasks: Orange background with bold text.
Completed Tasks: Green background with checkmark icon (using conditional formatting + custom symbol).
Completion % > 80%: Light blue fill to indicate near-completion.
Department Tracker – Overdue Tasks > 2: Red font and blinking border.
