Sheet Names

• Chore Chart (Main Data): The core table where chores are assigned, tracked, and completed.

Table Structures and Data Types

The primary table in the "Chore Chart (Main Data)" sheet is structured as follows:

All data types are standardized: Chore ID is a unique identifier (text), Task Name and Description are text fields, Category is categorical (e.g., Cleaning, Maintenance), Frequency uses dropdowns for consistency, Scheduled Day(s) stores day names or days of the week as text, Due Date is date format, Status uses a lookup-based dropdown with values: Pending, Completed, Overdue.

Formulas Required

Key formulas used across sheets include:

• =IF(DATEVALUE(C5) > TODAY(), "Overdue", IF(C5 = TODAY(), "Due Today", "Pending")): Determines if a chore is overdue.
• =COUNTIFS(Status, "Completed") / COUNTA(Task Name) * 100: Calculates completion rate per week/month.
• =SUMPRODUCT((Frequency = "Daily") * (Status = "Completed")): Counts completed daily tasks.
• =TEXT(Due Date, "dddd, mmmm dd"): Formats due dates for readability.
• =VLOOKUP(Chore ID, Settings!$A:$B, 2, FALSE): Pulls category descriptions from the Settings sheet to maintain consistency.

Conditional Formatting

Conditional formatting is applied to highlight key insights:

• Status Column (Red/Yellow/Green): Red for Overdue, Yellow for Due Today, Green for Completed.
• Due Date Column (Color Gradient): Light blue to red based on time remaining.
• Completion Rate (Bar in Dashboard): Dynamic color coding: Green (>90%), Yellow (70–90%), Red (<70%).
• Frequency Filter Highlighting: Weekly tasks are shaded differently from daily tasks for visual distinction.
