Formulas & Automation

- Auto-generated IDs: `=CONCAT("S-", YEAR(TODAY()), "-", TEXT(ROW()-1, "000"))` in Opportunity ID column. - Last Updated Date: `=NOW()` with a custom format (e.g., dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm). - Conditional Color for Pipeline Stages: Use formulas to apply color coding based on stage progress. - Data Validation: Dropdowns for Lead Source, Sales Stage, and Status fields prevent data entry errors.

Conditional Formatting

- **Sales Stage Color Coding:** Green (Closed-Won), Yellow (Negotiation), Orange (Proposal), Red (Lost). - **Overdue Deals:** Highlight any opportunity with Expected Close Date before TODAY() and status not Closed-Won. - **High Probability (>80%):** Bold font and blue background for high-confidence deals. - **Low Deal Value (<$500):** Light gray background to identify micro-deals.

Instructions for the User

Add new leads via the Sales Pipeline Tracker or Contact & Lead Database. 4. For every new sales process (e.g., inbound follow-up), record it in the Process Documentation Log. 5.
