Table Structures & Column Definitions (Maintenance Log – Main Data)

The primary table in the Maintenance Log (Main Data) sheet is structured as a dynamic Excel Table (Ctrl + T) to support automatic expansion and formula consistency.

Column Name	Data Type / Format	Description & Validation Rule
Record ID (Auto)	Text (Auto-incremental)	Unique identifier in format "MNT-YYYY-####" (e.g., MNT-2024-001). Generated via formula using ROW() and YEAR().
Equipment ID	List (from Equipment Inventory)	Dropdown list pulled from Sheet 3 (Equipment Inventory). Ensures consistency in equipment identification.
Asset Name	Text	Auto-filled from Equipment Inventory via VLOOKUP. E.g., "Boiler Unit A-7".
Maintenance Type	List: Preventive, Corrective, Emergency, Calibration	Standardized category to distinguish maintenance nature.
Scheduled Date (Planned)	Date (mm/dd/yyyy)	Planned maintenance date. Mandatory field with data validation.
Actual Completion Date	Date (Optional, mm/dd/yyyy)	Enter once task is completed. Auto-populates if “Status” is set to "Completed".
Status	List: Scheduled, In Progress, Completed, Overdue, Cancelled	Dynamic status that triggers conditional formatting and dashboard calculations.
Compliance Standard(s)	Text (Multiple with comma)	E.g., OSHA 1910.269, ISO 14001, FDA 21 CFR Part 820. Critical for audit trails.
Frequency	List: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Biannually, Annually	Used to calculate next due date via formula.
Next Due Date	Date (Automated)	Formula: =IF(Actual Completion Date="", DATE(YEAR(Scheduled Date)+IF(Frequency="Annually",1,0), MONTH(Scheduled Date), DAY(Scheduled Date)), IF(Frequency="Monthly", EDATE(Actual Completion Date, 1), IF(Frequency="Quarterly", EDATE(Actual Completion Date, 3), IF(Frequency="Biannually", EDATE(Actual Completion Date, 6), IF(Frequency="Weekly", A2+7, "N/A")))))
Technician Name	Text / Dropdown (from Technician Roster)	Tracks responsible personnel. Supports accountability.
Maintenance Notes	Long Text (up to 1000 chars)	Free-form field for observations, anomalies, or recommendations.
