This meticulously designed Excel template serves as a Manager View dashboard for integrated Employee Management and Inventory Tracking.

This template leverages advanced Excel formulas for automation and real-time updates:

=VLOOKUP(): Used in Assignment Log to pull employee names, asset descriptions, and department info from the Master List and Inventory sheets.
=COUNTIFS(): Counts active employees per department or total assets assigned.
=IF(AND(...)): Flags overdue returns (e.g., if Due Date is past today and Status ≠ "Returned").
=SUMIFS(): Calculates total inventory value by department or asset category.
=TODAY(): Dynamically updates the current date for comparison in overdue alerts.

Conditional Formatting Rules

To enhance readability and highlight key information:

Overdue assignments turn red font with yellow background if Due Date is before today and Status ≠ "Returned".
Employees on leave are highlighted in pale orange.
Critical inventory (high value or high risk) items are marked with a red border.
Top 3 departments by asset allocation receive a green highlight.
