Practice workflow

1. Rebuild the example once exactly as described, then repeat it with different labels, dates, or amounts.
2. Write a short note beside the result explaining what each step is doing and why it matters.
3. Change one input value and confirm the output updates in the way you expected.
4. Save a clean copy of the workbook before experimenting further.

Quality checks

• Inputs, calculations, and final outputs are separated clearly.
• Headings describe the data without relying on memory or hidden context.
• The final result can be understood by someone who did not build the workbook.

Common mistakes

• Mixing raw data and manual adjustments in the same cells.
• Skipping a quick review after the result looks correct.
• Building a one-off fix instead of a repeatable workflow.

Next actions

• Apply the same pattern to a real workbook with 20 to 50 rows of sample data.
• Add one note that explains when you would not use this approach.
