Google Docs Weekly Report With Linked Tables
Produce a report that is quick to update and easy to read.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it.
Create a weekly report layout for [TEAM]. Typical content: [CONTENT]. Readers: [READERS]. Numbers: [NUMBERS]. Provide the structure: a headline summary, key numbers in a small table (this week, last week, change), done, next, risks and help needed. Fill the table with my numbers, calculating change and percent change as change divided by last week, with arithmetic, and warn when last week's value is zero. Example: sign-ups 180 this week against 150 last week is +30, or 20 percent. Do not invent numbers. Offer a version for readers with only 30 seconds and a short chat summary. Write the definition of each number in small text under the table, and record any change in what a number means so trends are not misread. Use a symbol or colour for up, down and unchanged that does not rely on colour alone. Suggest keeping last week's report as a copy to update in five minutes, and describe how tables might be linked from a spreadsheet [VERIFY].
