Sheet Names

• Task Scheduling Overview: A high-level summary sheet showing all active tasks with status, assignees, and due dates.
• Supply List - Employee View: The core data sheet containing detailed information on supplies required for each task.
• Task Progress Tracker: Tracks individual employee performance through task completion rates and lateness metrics.

Table Structures and Column Definitions

The central data structure is found in the Supply List - Employee View sheet. It uses a tabular format with the following columns:

Data Types and Validation Rules:

• Task ID: Text (Alphanumeric), formatted as #TSYYYY-MM, unique identifier.
• Description: Text (max 100 characters).
• Assigned To: Dropdown list of employee names from a linked employee database.
• Date Fields: Date type with data validation to prevent invalid entries (e.g., future dates only).
• Status: Dropdown: "Pending", "In Progress", "Completed".
• Priority Level: Dropdown: "Low", "Medium", "High" – impacts alert severity.
• Quantity and Unit: Number (integers only) and Text (pre-defined units like “Pcs”, “Meters”).

Formulas Required

The template uses several key formulas to automate functionality:

• =TODAY(): Used in the "Last Updated" column to auto-populate current date.
• =IF(Planned End Date < TODAY(), "Overdue", IF(Planned End Date = TODAY(), "Due Today", "On Schedule")): Calculates task status relative to due date.
• =SUMIFS(Quantity Needed, Status, "In Progress"): Returns total supply required for active tasks per employee.
• =IF(Priority Level="High", "⚠️ High Priority", IF(Priority Level="Medium", "🟡 Medium Priority", "🟢 Low Priority")): Creates visual indicators in status cells.
• =VLOOKUP(Task ID, Task Master Table, 4, FALSE): Links to a master task list for additional metadata (e.g., department).

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Status Column: Cells with "Overdue" show red background; "In Progress" shows yellow; "Completed" shows green.
• Priority Level: High = red, Medium = orange, Low = gray.
• Date Columns: If a start date is in the past, text turns blue with warning icon.
• Total Quantity Column: Highlights if quantity exceeds 100 (indicating potential supply risk).
