Measure user-reviewed document checklist coverage and estimate the effort to close remaining items.
Define applicable items before measuring
Remove genuinely inapplicable checks with a recorded reason rather than marking them complete. A completed item needs the evidence your reviewer requires; the calculator cannot decide whether a document satisfies that evidence.
How the calculation works
Remaining items = max(applicable items − min(completed items, applicable items), 0). Completion percentage = completed applicable items ÷ positive applicable items × 100. Review value = remaining items × minutes per item ÷ 60 × hourly reviewer cost.
A worked example
Forty applicable items with 28 complete leave 12. Completion is 70%. At 15 minutes per item and 60 per hour, remaining review effort is three hours valued at 180. Four critical open items are shown separately, without changing the percentage.
Keep critical gaps visible
A nearly complete checklist may still have one blocking item. The tool shows critical open count separately because a completion percentage should not obscure that issue. Review complex remaining items individually instead of relying on an average time.
What the result leaves out
A checklist percentage does not establish legal compliance or document quality. No document is uploaded or inspected. Required items, evidence standards and critical designations must come from the responsible reviewer.

The defaults are constructed examples, not market benchmarks. Choose one currency for every monetary input; the currency selector formats values and does not convert exchange rates. Keep a copy of the records and assumptions behind your result so you can repeat the comparison after the next reporting period.
