I have an Excel workbook (Office 2010) that lists multiple different spreadsheets (offices) in our organization. We use this workbook to keep track of their "errors" in turned-in documents (example only). I'm trying to figure out a good way to determine, through automation (functions) the percentage of documents that have had errors in them. I want to determine the percentage of documents looked at versus the amount of errors, completely ignoring the amount of errors. So if I looked at 10 documents and 7 of those had at least one error, the office's percentage of errors would be 70%.
Is there any easy way to do this?
I've tried a few functions but I continue to get errors. I show a sample sheet (one office) below. This example is similar across multiple sheets and there is a dashboard that I would like to display all of these statistics based on offices.
workpaper DISCREPENCIES
Paper Spelling Grammar Punctuation Total Errors/Paper
A.36.7 1 0 1 2
A.36.8 0 1 1 2
A.36.9 0 1 0 1
A.36.10 0 0 0 0
A.36.11 1 0 0 1
A.36.12 1 1 1 3
A.36.13 2 3 0 5
A.36.14 0 0 0 0
A.36.15 0 0 0 0
A.36.16 1 1 1 3
Total Errors 17
Total Documents 10
Total Documents w/ errors 7
Percentage of Errors 70%
I can do all of this manually but I would like to find a way to do this across all sheets since there are a quite a few and output them to a "dashboard" that has all offices listed in rows.

One way is to look at the number of worksheets with 0 errors in them. Then subtract that percentage from 100%. For example in G5:
=COUNTIF(E3:E12,0)/COUNT(E3:E12)
and in G6:
=100%-G5
