Sheet Names

• Weekly Planner (Main Sheet): The central hub for all planning activities.

• Meeting Schedule: Tracks meetings with dates, times, agendas, and attendees.
• Status Dashboard: A dynamic summary view that updates automatically based on task completion.

Table Structures & Data Types

The main sheet contains a single table spanning the entire page (from A1 to Z50). The table is divided into five primary sections:

1. Header Section (A1:J3): Includes team name, week date range, and collaboration goals.
2. Task Grid (A5:Z28): A structured grid of tasks with columns for Task Name, Assignee, Due Date (Date), Priority (Low/Medium/High), Status (Not Started / In Progress / Completed), and Notes.
3. Meeting Schedule Table (A30:B40): Lists all scheduled meetings with start time, end time, subject, and responsible team member.
4. Progress Summary (A42:G45): Aggregates data from the task grid using formulas to show total tasks, completed tasks, completion rate (%), overdue items.
5. Team Availability (A47:G50): Shows each team member's availability by day of the week (e.g., Monday–Friday).
