Assignment Log: Tracks current and historical assignments between employees and equipment with dates of issue, return, and status.
Dashboards & Analytics: Interactive dashboard displaying KPIs such as utilization rates, overdue equipment returns, department-wise distribution trends.
Maintenance Calendar: Schedules preventive maintenance tasks based on usage cycles and manufacturer recommendations.

Key Formulas

Warranty Expiry: =E2+365*4 – Calculates 4-year warranty from purchase date.
Status Update in Assignment Log: =IF(E2


    Auto-Assign Asset ID to Employee: Use VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP to populate employee names in the Equipment Inventory table based on the Assigned To field.
    Count of Active Devices per Department: =COUNTIFS('Equipment Inventory'!$H:$H, "In Use", 'Employee Master List'!$C:$C, "IT")
    Next Maintenance Reminder: In the Maintenance Calendar sheet: =IF(AND(MONTH(TODAY())=MONTH('Equipment Inventory'!F2), DAY(TODAY())<=DAY('Equipment Inventory'!F2)+7), "Reminder", "")
    Overdue Returns List: Use FILTER() function to extract all rows where E2 (Expected Return) is before TODAY() and status ≠ "Returned".



Conditional Formatting Rules

    Warranty Expiry Warning: Highlight cells in column F if date is within next 30 days (use formula: =AND(F2<=TODAY()+30, F2>TODAY())) with yellow fill.
    Overdue Assignments: If assignment status is "Overdue" and expected return date has passed → red background.
    Available vs In Use: Green for "Available", Red for "In Use", Orange for "Under Repair".
    Status Column in Employee Master List: Highlight inactive employees in gray.
