Formulas Required

The template uses several dynamic formulas across sheets:

=IF([@[Next Compliance Due Date]] <= TODAY(), "Overdue", IF([@[Next Compliance Due Date]] <= TODAY()+[@[Renewal Reminder]], "Due Soon", "On Track")) – Used in the Inventory Master to display real-time compliance status.
=IF(ISBLANK([@[Warranty Expiry Date]]), "", IF([@[Warranty Expiry Date]] < TODAY(), "Expired", IF([@[Warranty Expiry Date]] < TODAY()+30, "Expiring Soon", "Valid"))) – Tracks warranty status with visual alerts.
=VLOOKUP(AssetID, Audit Schedule!A:D, 4, FALSE) – Pulls compliance cycle (e.g., quarterly) from the Audit Schedule sheet to calculate due dates.
=COUNTIFS(Compliance Log!C:C, "Non-Compliant", Compliance Log!F:F, ">="&TODAY()-90) – Counts non-compliant items in the last 90 days for risk dashboard reporting.

Conditional Formatting Rules

To enhance visual clarity and urgency detection:

Overdue Compliance: Red fill with white text if [Next Compliance Due Date] < TODAY().
Due Within 14 Days: Orange fill with dark text to flag upcoming deadlines.
Pending Review Status: Yellow highlight for items needing human review.
Expired Warranty: Dark red background with bold text.
Near-Expiry (Within 30 Days): Light orange highlight to prompt proactive action.
