FUNDAMENTAL FORMULAS REQUIRED FOR COMPLIANCE TRACKING
- Compliance Status Formula:
=IF(AND(Certificate_Expiry_Date>TODAY(), Quality_Certificate_Status="Yes", Expiry_Date>TODAY()), "Pass", IF(OR(Certificate_Expiry_Date<=TODAY()+30, Expiry_Date<=TODAY()+30), "Warning", "Error"))
Automatically evaluates whether a product is compliant, near-expiry, or non-compliant. - Certification Renewal Reminder:
=IF(AND(Certificate_Expiry_Date-TODAY()<=60, Certificate_Expiry_Date-TODAY()>0), "Action Required: Renew within 2 months", "")
Flags products needing immediate attention. - Expiry Countdown:
Displays days remaining until expiry for visual alerts. - Pivot Table Dynamic Filters:
Use dynamic date ranges with =TODAY() to filter upcoming expiries and certification renewals.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING RULES
- Red fill for any row where Compliance Status = Error
- Yellow fill for rows with Compliance Status = Warning
- Purple gradient when days to expiry are less than 7
- Glowing border around entries with certifications expiring within 30 days
- Icon sets (traffic lights) in the Compliance Status column: green for Pass, yellow for Warning, red for Error
