Understand a Spreadsheet and Design Formulas
1. Fill in your details
The values below are examples. Replace them with your own; nothing is saved or sent.
2. Copy the full prompt
Complete the task using these inputs. Headers: [Headers]; Requirement: [Requirement]. First confirm the column types and software version, then give a small fictional sample clearly marked as a demo. Explain each argument of the recommended formula, give tests for blanks, amounts stored as text, and date boundaries, and provide an alternative PivotTable workflow; don't guess real data that wasn't provided. Structure the output as: understanding and assumptions, ready-to-use content, information I need to confirm, and next steps. Use clear, short sentences and avoid empty slogans; if key input is missing, ask at most three specific questions instead of filling gaps with guesses. Finally, check each item against my purpose and state clearly which results still need human review.

3. Check the result
Check formula ranges, date boundaries, and error-value handling. Verify names, numbers, and qualifiers from the input.
