What is in this workbook?
This workbook has three sheets: Dashboard, Weekly Coverage Grid, and Setup. Dashboard is the quick-review surface, Weekly Coverage Grid is the editable working log, and Setup holds supporting inputs, reusable context, or working rules.
How the workflow and formulas work
Use Weekly Coverage Grid for employee, role, Mon–Sun shifts, hours per shift, weekly hours, and coverage; use Setup for shift codes and meanings. Weekly hours equals the number of non-OFF Mon–Sun shifts multiplied by hours per shift. Coverage is Covered when at least five shifts are assigned, otherwise Review; Dashboard sums weekly hours, counts shift cells, reviews, and people.
How to use it in Griddy
Replace the sample values before sharing, then review the calculated Dashboard fields after editing the working log. The workbook includes a dropdown validation resource and a conditional-formatting resource for the relevant review or status fields.
Keep sensitive records out of the workbook
Use role and shift labels appropriately and keep sensitive employee records in the appropriate system. This workbook is a planning aid and does not replace accounting, legal, HR, tax, or education-record systems.
