Table Structures and Column Definitions

Each sheet contains a well-structured table with clearly defined columns and data types:

2. Schedule Calendar Sheet

This sheet presents a month-by-month grid view with days as columns and weeks as rows. Each cell contains a task name or status indicator if a task is assigned to that day.
