Key Formulas
The template leverages advanced Excel formulas across sheets for automation:

=SUMPRODUCT((HabitTracker[Status]="Completed")/COUNTA(HabitTracker[Date])) - Habit Tracker – Efficiency Score:
=IF(ActualTime <= TargetTime, 1.2, IF(ActualTime <= TargetTime*1.5, 0.8, 0)) - Progress Analytics – Weighted Habit Score:
=SUMPRODUCT((HabitTracker[Habit ID]=Mapping[Habit ID]) * Mapping[Weight] * HabitTracker[Score]) - Dashboard – Strategy Health Index:
=SUMPRODUCT(ProgressAnalytics[WeightedScore], ProgressAnalytics[GoalWeight])/SUM(ProgressAnalytics[GoalWeight]) - Data Validation (Dynamic List): Use named ranges with INDEX/MATCH to auto-update habit list based on goal.
