Sheet Names & Structure

• 1. Client Overview: A master summary sheet displaying key performance indicators (KPIs) such as total clients, active vs. inactive clients, client retention rate, average contract value (ACV), and upcoming renewal dates.
• 2. Client Details: A detailed table of all managed clients with full metadata including contact information, contract terms, service level agreements (SLAs), and account tier.
• 3. Engagement History: Records all client interactions such as support tickets, meetings, milestone completions, and feedback surveys.
• 4. Financial Performance: Tracks billing data including invoice status, payment delays, outstanding balances, and revenue trends by quarter.
• 5. Analysis View (Dashboard): The central hub with dynamic charts, filters, pivot tables, and conditional visuals that analyze client data across multiple dimensions.

Table Structures & Columns

The primary table in the Client Details sheet is structured as follows:

Formulas Required

The template includes dynamic formulas across multiple sheets to automate reporting:

• Pivot Tables on Analysis View Sheet: Summarize MRR by account tier, industry, and contract duration.
• Formula for Client Retention Rate (Client Overview): = (COUNTIF(Contract End Date, ">=&TODAY()") / COUNTA(Contract Start Date)) * 100
• Formula for Upcoming Renewals (Next 30 Days): =IF(AND([@["Contract End Date"]] >= TODAY(), [@["Contract End Date"]] <= TODAY()+30), "Renewal in 30 days", "")
• Formula to Flag Late Payments (Financial Performance): =IF([@[Payment Due Date]] < TODAY() - 15, "Overdue", IF([@[Payment Due Date]] < TODAY(), "Due Today", "On Time"))

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual clarity and prioritize action items, the template uses:

• Color-Blind Friendly Red-Yellow-Green Scale: For SLA Compliance (e.g., >95% = green, 85–94% = yellow, <85% = red).
• Icon Sets: Traffic lights for contract status (red=inactive, yellow=upcoming renewal, green=active).
• Data Bars: Visual representation of MRR values in the Client Details table.
• Highlighting Overdue Invoices: Red fill with bold text for any payment due more than 15 days past due.
