I feel very happy to share this with you. Our blog reader and excel ninja Fernando sent me this in e-mail.
Based on your last post about Project Management, I did a tool to track project status at my company. I’ve included some things differently than your suggestion, and even added a Tweetboard (which turned out to be a great success – thanks a lot for the idea! 🙂 ) on another tab, to resume information about project status. I loaded it with your sample data, to protect our personal info (compliance stuff), and translated it to English (although I’m not pretty sure everything is well-translated – feel free to correct). …
All the best from Brazil! 🙂
See the implementation of the project management dashboard along with the tweetboard below:
Download the dashboard + tweetboard example:

I have locked the file as the project dashboard is on sale. If you want an unlocked version of the dashboard template (and 23 other excel templates for better project management) click here. You can be rolling out a similar dashboard in a couple hours using the project management bundle.

Hi Chandoo,
I am responsible for tracking when church reports are submitted on time or not and the variations from the due date for submission.
Here is the Scenario;
The due date for the submission of monthly reports is on the 5th of each month. and I would like to know how many reports have been submitted on time (i.e, those that have been submitted on or before the due date) I would also want to track those reports that have been submitted after the due date has passed.
How can I create such a tracker?
Hi Chandoo,
I am a member of your excel school.
I was trying to create SOP Tracker I follow all your steps but I keep this error below.
The list source must be a delimited list, or a reference to a single row or cell.
I try looking on YouTube for answer but no luck.
can you help on this?
thanks
Carl.
