The Sales Tracker sheet uses a structured table format with the following columns and data types:

Column Name	Data Type	Description
Opportunity ID	Text (Auto-incrementing)	A unique identifier for each sales opportunity (e.g., ST-2024-001). Auto-generated using a formula.

Expected Close Date	Date	Predicted date for deal closure (based on pipeline forecasting).
Deal Value ($)	Number (Currency)	Total value of the opportunity in USD.
Probability (%)	Number (0–100%)	Estimated chance of closing the deal, dynamically linked to stage.
Status Update Date	Date	Last date when the opportunity was updated in the system.

Expected Revenue: =IF(AND([@[Deal Value ($)]]>0,[@[Probability (%)]]>0), [@[Deal Value ($)]]*[@[Probability (%)]]/100, 0) (Calculates weighted revenue for forecasting)
Status Update Indicator: =IF(TODAY()-[@[Status Update Date]]>30,"⚠️ Overdue","✅ On Track") (Flags opportunities not updated in 30+ days)
