The template uses advanced Excel formulas to maintain data integrity and automate calculations:- Overtime Rate Calculation:
=IF(OvertimeHoursThisPayPeriod>0, HourlyRate*1.5, 0) - Total Gross Pay:
= (RegularHoursPerWeek * HourlyRate) + (OvertimeHoursThisPayPeriod * OvertimeRate) - Completion Status Logic:
=IF(Score >= 70, "Completed", IF(Score = "", "Not Started", "Failed")) - Employee Enrollment Check: Use VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP to verify training participation from Payroll Master data.
- Count of Active Training Programs per Employee:
=COUNTIFS(EmployeeProgressTracker[EmployeeID], A2, EmployeeProgressTracker[CompletionStatus], "In Progress")
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance readability and highlight key information:- Red Highlight for Overdue Training Deadlines: Apply rule to EndDate column: If EndDate < TODAY(), format with red fill.
- Green for Completed Courses: CompletionStatus = "Completed" → Green background.
- Yellow for In Progress: CompletionStatus = "In Progress" → Yellow highlight.
- High Gross Pay (> $150,000/year): Highlight any NetPay row exceeding this threshold in blue.
