Tutorial: Creating Completion Percentage and Progress Bar in Google Sheets

Introduction

Do you want to visualize your checklist with progress bars and track completion rates efficiently? In this tutorial, we'll show you how to create completion percentages and progress bars based on checkboxes or tick boxes in Google Sheets. By following these simple steps, you'll be able to manage your tasks effectively and improve productivity.

Step 1: Understanding the Task List

Before we dive into the formulas, let's understand the structure of our task list. We have tasks and subtasks listed in columns B and C, respectively. Each item will have a checkbox or tick box to indicate completion.

Step 2: Calculating Completion Percentage

Insert Formula in Cell C2: Enter the following formula in cell C2:
```
=COUNTIF(B3:B5, TRUE) / COUNTA(B3:B5)
```
This formula calculates the completion percentage based on the number of checked items in the task list.

Step 3: Creating the Progress Bar

Insert Formula in Cell D2: Use the Sparkline function to create a progress bar. Enter the following formula in cell D2:
```
=SPARKLINE(C2, {"charttype","bar"; "color1","green"; "max",1})
```
This formula generates a progress bar based on the completion percentage calculated in cell C2.

Step 4: Apply Formulas to Other Cells

Copy and Paste Formulas: Copy the formulas from cells C2 and D2, and paste them into other cells where you want to display completion percentage and progress bars.

Step 5: Testing and Usage

Update Task Completion: As you tick off items in your task list, the completion percentage and progress bars will update automatically.
Track Progress: Use the visual representation of completion percentages and progress bars to track your task progress effectively.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You've successfully created completion percentages and progress bars based on checkboxes or tick boxes in Google Sheets. By visualizing your tasks in this manner, you can improve task management and boost productivity.
