In this section, you need to enter only one field that is the number of days to fill the vacant position and the formula will automatically calculate the cost of covering vacant position per day as well as the total cost of covering vacant post.

You need to input the salary+benefits of the new employee and the template will display the per day cost as well as the cost for the total number of days.
