Sheet Names

Task Scheduling: Central sheet where all tasks are defined with start/end dates, dependencies, assigned personnel, and status.
Cash Flow Overview: Aggregates daily/weekly/monthly cash inflows and outflows with net balance tracking.
Task-to-Cash Mapping: Links each task to specific financial transactions (e.g., labor cost, material purchase).
Summary Dashboard: Visual representation of key performance indicators such as project progress vs. budget, cash flow trends, and overdue tasks.
Settings & Parameters: Stores configuration values like currency format, date system (e.g., MM/DD/YYYY), reporting frequency (daily/weekly), and default task categories.

Table Structures and Column Definitions

The core table structures are built using standard Excel tables with defined data types to ensure accuracy and consistency:

1. Task Scheduling Sheet

< th>Dependencies (IDs)A99, B103

Task ID	Description	Start Date	End Date	Duration (Days)	Status	Assignee	Priority Level
A101	Finalize UI Design	2024-04-05	2024-04-15	11	In Progress	Jane Doe	High
A102	Develop Backend API	2024-04-16	2024-05-18	33	Pending Approval
Example Row 3 – Task Scheduling Table (Dynamic)

All dates are stored as DATE data types. Duration is calculated automatically using the formula =EndDate - StartDate. Status values are restricted to predefined options: "Not Started", "In Progress", "On Hold", "Completed", or "Delayed". Priority uses a dropdown list (High, Medium, Low).

2. Cash Flow Overview Sheet

=Income - Expenses=Expenses - Income

Date	Income (USD)	Expenses (USD)
2024-04-01	5000	3200
2024-04-15	7500	6800
Example Row 3 – Cash Flow Table (Daily Tracking)



This table uses standard currency format with USD symbol and two decimal places. All financial values are stored as NUMBER data types.

3. Task-to-Cash Mapping Sheet

    
        
            Task ID
            Cash Type (e.g., Labor, Materials)
            Amount (USD)
            Date of Transaction
            Status of Payment
        
    
    
        A101 Labor Cost 2500.00 2024-04-12
        Example Row 3 – Mapping Task to Financial Entry (Dynamic)
    


This sheet acts as a bridge between task scheduling and cash flow. Each row links a task to a financial event with clear transaction details.

Formulas Required

    =IF(EndDate <= TODAY(), "Delayed", IF(Status = "Completed", "On Track", Status)): Flags delayed tasks.
    =NETWORKDAYS(Start_Date, End_Date): Calculates actual workdays (excluding weekends).
    =SUMIFS(Cash Flow!Income:Income, Task-to-Cash!Task ID, A101): Pulls total income related to a specific task.
    =VLOOKUP(Task_ID, Task-to-Cash Mapping!Task ID:Amount, 3, FALSE): Retrieves task-specific costs for budgeting.
    =SUMIF(Date Range, ">=" & StartDate, Net Cash Flow): Tracks cumulative cash flow from a given date forward.


Conditional Formatting Rules

    Red highlight on "Overdue" tasks: Applies when end date is less than today and status is "In Progress".
    Green background for completed tasks: When status = "Completed".
    Yellow cells for net negative cash flow (>0): Highlights cash deficits in the Cash Flow Overview.
    Color scale on duration: Tasks over 30 days show red to blue gradient (high to low priority).


User Instructions

    Open the template and navigate to the "Settings & Parameters" sheet to customize date formats, currency, or reporting frequency.
    Enter task details in the "Task Scheduling" sheet. Use dropdowns for status and priority to ensure data consistency.
    Map each task to financial entries in the "Task-to-Cash Mapping" table with accurate amounts and dates.
    The "Cash Flow Overview" will auto-update based on inputs from both sheets using VLOOKUP and SUMIFS functions.
