 Exp22_Excel_Ch04_Cumulative – Insurance Claims 1.1

Project Description:

You have been hired as a business analyst at SKV Insurance claims department. As part of your responsibilities, you have been asked to enhance the Excel workbook used to analyze the department’s performance. The workbook contains records of all claims resolved over the past year. You will convert the data to a table, format the table, sort and filter the table, insert calculations to evaluate key performance indicators, and then prepare the worksheet for printing. 

Start Excel. Download and open   the file named EXP22_Excel_Ch04_Cumulative_Insurance.xlsx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

Freeze the panes so the first   row containing column headings (Row 6) and first two columns (Columns A:B) on   the InsuranceClaims worksheet will remain static when scrolling.

Convert the data to a table,   name the table InsuranceClaims, and then apply the Light Green, Table Style Light   21.

Remove duplicate records.

Add a new column to the table   named Duration.

Create a formula using   unqualified structured references to calculate the days required to resolve   the incident (Date Resolved – Date Created) and apply General Number Format.

Add a total row to display the   Average days required to complete a claim.

Sort the table by insurance   agent in alphabetic order, add a second level to sort by description, and   then create a custom sort order as follows: Natural Disaster, Flood, Fire, Theft, Accident. Add a third level to sort by duration smallest to largest.

Filter the table to only display   closed claims as indicated in the status column.

Use Quick Analysis to apply Blue   Data Bars conditional formatting to the column that contains duration. (On a   Mac use Conditional Formatting.)

Create a conditional format that   applies Red fill and White Background 1 font color to the incidents (column   B) that required 30 or more days to resolve.

Select Landscape orientation and   set appropriate margins so that the data will print on one page. Set the   print scale to 70%.

Change page breaks so each   agent’s information prints on its own page.

Set row 6 to repeat on each page   that is printed.

Save and close EXP22_Excel_CH04_Cumulative_Insurance.xlsx.   Exit Excel.
