Formulas Required

The template leverages Excel’s powerful formula engine to ensure dynamic functionality:

• Due Date Calculation (in Chore Master Sheet): =STARTDATE + (IF(Frequency="Daily",0,IF(Frequency="Weekly",7,IF(Frequency="Bi-Weekly",14,30))) * WEEKS)
• Completion Rate (%) in Weekly Summary: =SUMIFS(Status!$B:$B,"Status","Yes") / COUNTA(Status!$B:$B) * 100
• Average Score per Person: =AVERAGEIFS(PerformanceScore!$C:$C, PerformanceLog!$D:$D, "PersonName")
• Daily Status Check: Uses IF and TODAY() to auto-detect if today's due date has passed.
• Automatic Scoring (Optional): If status is “No,” score defaults to 0; if “Yes,” prompts user for rating via dropdown.
