All data fields are designed with appropriate data types: dates use built-in Excel date formatting, monetary values are stored as numeric currency with two decimal places, status is text-based for filtering and conditional logic.

Formulas Required

Conditional Formatting

Dynamic conditional formatting enhances visual clarity and user engagement:

• Status Highlighting: "Completed" cells turn green; "Pending" appears yellow; "Follow-up" is red.
• Revenue Thresholds: Cells with amounts above $500 are highlighted in blue to indicate high-value sales.
