Formulas and Automation
To ensure accuracy and reduce manual effort, the following Excel formulas are implemented:- Status Calculation:
=IF(TODAY() > [Expiration/Next Due Date], "Overdue", IF([Last Inspected Date] + 365 <= TODAY(), "Expired", "Active"))(based on annual compliance). - Next Inspection Reminder:
=IF(OR([Last Inspected Date]="", [Expiration/Next Due Date]=""), "", [Last Inspected Date] + 365) - Days Until Overdue:
=IF([Expiration/Next Due Date]="", "", [Expiration/Next Due Date] - TODAY()) - Count of Overdue Items: Used in the dashboard:
=COUNTIF(Status, "Overdue") - Compliance Rate (Percentage):
=1 - (COUNTIF(Status, "Overdue")/COUNTA(Item Name))
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance visual tracking and urgency awareness:- Overdue Items: Highlight in red if "Days Until Overdue" ≤ 0.
- Approaching Due (1–7 days): Yellow background for items due within a week.
- Safety-Critical Items: Apply bold formatting or green border to all items in the "Safety" category with active status.
- Status Column: Color-coded: Green for "Active", Yellow for "Expired", Red for "Overdue".
