Zoho Sheet : Checkbox Tracker for Better Task Management

Hello, Zoho Sheet users!

We're back with another tip to help you make the most of your Zoho Sheet experience.

Did you know that checkboxes in spreadsheets can be a game-changer for dynamically tracking the progress of your tasks? Here's a quick guide on creating a checkbox tracker in Zoho Sheet to streamline your workflows.

Create a Checkbox Tracker in Zoho Sheet  

Here’s an example to understand how a checkbox tracker works:

Imagine you’re a project manager looking to monitor the completion of project phases or milestones. Here’s how you can set it up:

Step 1: Organize your data.
Designate rows for Project Names and columns for Phases or Milestones.

Step 2: Add checkboxes.
Go to Insert -> Checkbox, and place the first checkbox in the desired cell (e.g., B2). Use drag-and-drop to apply checkboxes to the remaining cells in your selection.

Step 3: Use a formula to calculate progress.
In a separate cell, input the formula: =COUNTIF(B2:B6, TRUE)/COUNTA(B2:B6). Then, format the result as a percentage to reflect the progress visually.

 

Track Progress Dynamically  

Now, as you mark each checkbox, your progress percentage updates automatically, giving you a real-time view of task completion.

We hope this tip empowers you to simplify project tracking. Explore more tips in our Tips and Tricks forum and join the Zoho Sheet community to stay updated on product enhancements and connect with other users.
