Formulas Required

The template leverages Excel formulas to automate productivity tracking and reduce manual effort:

• SUMIFS() or SUMIF() – To calculate total sales by product category, team member, or date range.
• AVERAGEIFS() – For average daily sales per user.
• COUNTIF() – Counts number of closed deals and lost opportunities.
• PROPORTION() or (Closed Won / Total Opportunities) – Used in conversion rate calculation.
• IFS() or nested IFs – To calculate productivity score based on thresholds: e.g., 80%+ completion = 90, 70–79% = 75, below = 50.
• TODAY() or DATE() – For dynamic date filtering in reports.
• ROUND() – To format currency and percentages to two decimal places.

Conditional Formatting Rules

To improve visual feedback and productivity, the following conditional formatting rules are applied:

• Yellow Highlight on daily sales entries below 80% of average team performance.
• Red Background on closed-lost deals (for review and improvement).
• Green Fill for entries that exceed weekly target by 10% or more.
• Different color gradient in the Performance Summary sheet for team members with productivity scores above 85% vs. below 60%.
• Dynamic cell shading based on variance: negative variance → blue, positive → green.
