Table Structures and Data Types

Sheet 1: Data Entry (Daily Tracker)

This is the foundation of habit tracking. Each row represents one day’s activity. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-------------| | Date | Date (MM/DD/YYYY) | Automatically populated with today's date if not entered manually | | Lead Calls Made | Number (Integer) | Count of prospect calls made that day | | Meetings Scheduled | Number (Integer) | Number of qualified meetings booked | | Proposals Sent | Number (Integer) | Proposals delivered to clients | | Conversion Rate (%) | Percentage (0.0% to 100.0%) | Actual conversion rate achieved that day | | Hours Worked (Est.) | Decimal (e.g., 6.5) | Estimated work hours for the day | | Habit Score (Auto) | Number (1–5) | Automated score based on daily performance and consistency |

Sheet 2: Monthly Forecast Engine

This sheet aggregates daily data into monthly forecasts using weighted averages and trend analysis. | Column | Data Type | Formula/Description | |--------|-----------|---------------------| | Month & Year | Text (e.g., "May 2024") | Based on calendar month of first date in Data Entry | | Forecasted Revenue (USD) | Currency ($) | =SUMPRODUCT(Weighted Activity Factors, Expected Conversion Rates) | | Actual Revenue to Date (USD) | Currency ($) | Pulls from historical data or manual input | | Forecast Accuracy (%) | Percentage (%) | =IF(Actual>0, ABS((Forecast-Actual)/Actual), 0) | | Trend Confidence Score (1–10) | Number (1–10) | Dynamic score based on habit consistency and deviation |

Sheet 3: Habit Analytics Dashboard

Visualizes habits over time with interactive charts. | Element | Type | |--------|------| | Daily Habit Tracker Chart (Line Graph) | Line chart showing trend of "Habit Score" over time | | Weekly Activity Breakdown (Bar Chart) | Clustered column chart of calls, meetings, proposals per week | | Conversion Rate Trend (Area Chart) | Smooth area graph showing daily conversion rate shifts |

Formulas Required

Habit Score Formula: =IF(AND(A2>=5,B2>=3,C2>=1), 5, IF(AND(A2>=4,B2>=3,C2>=1),4, IF(AND(A2>3,B2>0),3, IF(OR(A2<0,A1="",A1=""), 0, 1))))
Daily Conversion Rate: =IF(CallsMade=0, 0%, LeadsConverted/CallsMade)
Monthly Forecasted Revenue: =SUMPRODUCT(INDIRECT("Data Entry!$B:$B"), INDIRECT("Data Entry!$F:$F")) * AVERAGE(INDIRECT("Data Entry!$D:$D"))
Trend Confidence Score: =IF(AVERAGE('Habit Analytics'!E:E)>4, 9, IF(AVERAGE('Habit Analytics'!E:E)>3.5, 7, IF(AVERAGE('Habit Analytics'!E:E)>2.5, 6, 4)))

Conditional Formatting Rules

Habit Score: Color scales – green (4–5), yellow (3), red (1–2)
Daily Conversion Rate: Data bars showing high to low conversion rates
Forecast Accuracy: Icon sets – green checkmark (>80%), amber arrow (~70–79%), red X (<70%)
