Sheet Names

The template includes only one primary sheet named:

This single sheet hosts all data, tables, formulas, charts, and formatting. No additional sheets are required. All information is structured and displayed in a clean, scrollable layout optimized for one-page viewing.

Table Structures & Data Layout

The core data structure is organized into four main sections:

1. Client Overview
2. Time Logs
3. Task Progress Tracker
4. Weekly Summary & Dashboard

The table is laid out in a tabular grid that spans approximately 30 columns and 120 rows, with appropriate headers, filtering, and conditional formatting. Each section is clearly labeled with visual separation using light gray lines or borders for readability.

• =IF(D2 > E2, D2 - E2, 0) – Calculates time variance between estimated and actual.
• =VLOOKUP(A2, ClientTable!A:B, 2, FALSE) – Optional for client-specific data lookup (if extended).

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual clarity and alert users to time-related issues:

• Priorities: High/Urgent cells highlight in red; Medium in yellow; Low in green.
• Time Overruns: Cells where actual time exceeds estimated time turn orange.
• Status Indicators: "Blocked" entries are shaded gray with bold text.
