This Aqua Blue workbook automates the routine work of a weekly project status report. Its core functions are task tracking, schedule visualisation, budget comparison and open-item counting, all driven by one table of source data. Enter tasks, owners and dates on the Notes sheet and the duration column calculates itself from the difference between the end and start dates. Choose a status from the built-in drop-down list, and the completion percentages recalculate automatically through COUNTIF formulas rather than being typed in by hand. The dashboard sheet reads the register through cell links, so there is no risk of the summary drifting away from the detail. Four charts sit on that sheet: a status-coloured Gantt schedule, an overall task-status pie, a planned-versus-actual budget bar and a pending-items column chart. Conditional formatting paints each status cell in its own semantic colour, making blocked and overdue work visible at a glance. A project header block carries the project name, report date, overall project status and a percentage-complete progress bar. The Aqua Blue design uses a saturated azure header with pale blue fills and generous white space, echoing a clean corporate invoice layout. Print settings are already tuned for a single landscape page, so the dashboard can be exported to PDF and circulated with one click.
