The basic premise of a solution oriented approach is that it requires some element of dynamic adjustment or a self corrective modus operandus that will ensure proximity to correctness within a set of expected variations.
1. Your suggestion of having each column hard coded will (may) not suffice the end user requirement. A simple and obvious reason would be that the user will be bound from changing the order of the states vertically in the front-end sheet, or horizontally in the back-end sheet. 2. It is not always a given that the count of activities will remain constant at 17. Apparently, there are only 14 activities in the sample provided. 3. Least intervention from an end-user perspective should be considered as one of the criteria for a solution to be considered optimal.
