1) restrict cell entries to whole numbers or dates; 
2) limit the number of characters a cell will accept

Data Validation --> allows you to set cells so that the values they accept are restricted in terms of type and range of data. This feature can be set up to display prompts and error messages when users select a cell or enter invalid data 
Solver --> allows you to specify up to 200 cells that can be adjusted to find a solution to a problem. Lets you place limits or constraints on allowable values for some or all of those cells. 
Constraint --> limitation on the possible values that a cell can contain
Watch Window - allows you to keep an eye on cells that you have identified as being related; this allows you to observe changes to the cells even when viewing a different worksheet or workbook

1) Use trial and error - to modify the values in the worksheet.

Example: 
Total hours for Kristen --> less than or equal to 40 hours 
Set Cell --> D11 = D10/D4 
*Used to change the number of individual clients for Kristen to keep the total hours for Kristen at less than or equal to 40. 

Set Cell --> Cell containing goal value (D11) 
To Value --> goal value for cell D11
By changing cell --> cell to adjust to reach goal value for cell D11
