Formulas Required
The template uses advanced Excel formulas for automation and data integrity:
- Auto-generated Equipment ID (Column A):
=TEXT(TODAY(), "yyyymmdd")&"-"&TEXT(COUNTA(A:A)+1, "000")— ensures unique, date-based IDs. - Warranty Status Indicator (New Column: Warranty Status):
=IF(Warranty_Expiry_Date > TODAY(), "Valid", IF(Warranty_Expiry_Date = TODAY(), "Expires Today", "Expired")) - Depreciation Calculation (Current Value):
=ROUND((Purchase_Price * 0.85^DATEDIF(Purchase_Date, TODAY(), "y")), 2)— applies 15% annual depreciation. - Days Since Last Service (Column I):
=TODAY()-Last_Service_Date
Conditional Formatting
To enhance visual clarity and alertness, the template applies conditional formatting rules:
- Warranty Expiry (Within 30 days): Cells in "Warranty Expiry Date" turn yellow if within 30 days of today.
- Status: Under Maintenance or In Repair: Background color changed to orange for real-time visibility of equipment out of service.
- Current Value Below Threshold (e.g., £100): Text highlighted in red to flag low-value obsolete items.
- Days Since Last Service > 90 days: Automatic red highlight for overdue maintenance alerts.
