Formulas Required

The template uses advanced Excel formulas across multiple sheets for automation:

• Health Score Calculation (Cell in Health Scorecard):
  =IF(AND([@Status]="Active", [@Satisfaction Score] >= 4), (1 - ((TODAY() - [@Last Communication Date]) / 90)) * 30 + ([@On-Time Delivery Rate] * 40) + ([@Satisfaction Score] * 25) + (IF([@Support Tickets Last 30 Days] <= 2, 15, -15)), IF([@Status]="On Hold", 60, IF([@Status]="Terminated", 0, "N/A")))
• Contract Status Indicator (Client Master List):
  =IF(TODAY() > [@[Contract End Date]], "Expired", IF(TODAY() >= [@[Contract End Date]] - 30, "Renewal Due Soon", "Active"))
• Revenue Forecast (Operations Dashboard):
  =SUMIFS('Client Master List'!$J:$J, 'Client Master List'!$K:$K, "Active", 'Client Master List'!$I:$I, ">="&TODAY(), 'Client Master List'!$I:$I, "<"&EDATE(TODAY(), 1))

Conditional Formatting

Visual cues are applied to enhance readability and highlight critical information:

• Health Score < 60 → Red fill with white text (High Risk)
• Health Score ≥ 80 → Green fill with white text (Healthy)
• Milestone Due Date within 7 days → Yellow highlight
• Status = "Renewal Due Soon" → Orange background
• Support Tickets > 5 in last 30 days → Red font color
