Excel to Google Sheets Conversion for Production Planning Tool

Description

Project Scope: Excel to Google Sheets Conversion for Production Planning ToolWe need to convert a complex, multi-sheet Excel-based production planner (with macros and PowerQueries) into a fully functional Google Sheets solution. This is used for tracking furniture manufacturing orders. The new Google Sheets version should replicate all current functionality and also allow for some additional improvements or enhancements.
Key Requirements:Convert Excel Macros & PowerQueries to Google Sheets-compatible functions (likely using Google Apps Script).Maintain and recreate existing functionality, including:Dynamic data entryConditional formattingAutomated data movement between sheetsCustom charts and graphsGantt chartsAllow for future enhancements or process improvements.

Sheet Breakdown:
SHEET 1: Active OrdersTracks all current product orders.Each row = one product SKU in production.Includes: client details, production schedule, departments involved, tracking for each production stage, and financial graphs.
SHEET 2: Completed OrdersOrders marked complete move here.Used for historical tracking, performance metrics, and visual analysis (e.g., lead times, dollar value by week).
SHEET 3: ProductsProduct master list.Defines production steps per product and expected build times for each department.
SHEETS 4–15: Work Center SheetsOne sheet per production stage (e.g., Parts, Sanding, Finishing).Pulls relevant orders from “Active Orders”.Allows team to input actual build times and completion dates, which update back to Sheet 1.
Sheet 16–17: Gantt ChartsVisual schedules by builder for key departments (Custom Shop, Upper Assembly).
Ideal Provider:Proficient in Google Sheets and Apps ScriptExperience with migrating Excel macros to Google SheetsUnderstanding of manufacturing workflows is a plus
