This master table is used by administrators to maintain a centralized record of all assets. | Column Name | Data Type | Description | |---------------------|---------------------|-----------| | Asset ID | Text (Unique Key) | Auto-generated alphanumeric code for each asset (e.g., ASSET-00123). | | Asset Name | Text | Descriptive name of the asset (e.g., Laptop Dell XPS 15). | | Category | Drop-down List | Predefined categories: Hardware, Software, Furniture, Tools, Equipment. | | Serial Number | Text | Manufacturer’s serial number (unique per unit). | | Purchase Date | Date | When the asset was acquired. | > Formula: `=TEXT(PurchaseDate,"mm/dd/yyyy")` to standardize format.

Sheet 2: My Assigned Assets

This is the employee’s personal dashboard showing only assets assigned to them via their Employee ID. | Column Name | Data Type | Description | |---------------------|---------------------|-----------| | Asset ID | Text | Reference to Master List. | | Asset Name | Text | Linked from master list using VLOOKUP. | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 2, FALSE)` | Category | Text | Automatically populated from master data. | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 3, FALSE)` | Assigned To | Text (Employee ID) | Self-filled by employee or pre-populated from HR records. | | Assigned Date | Date | When the asset was assigned. | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 5, FALSE)` | Location | Text | Office location or department name (e.g., "Marketing Dept - Floor 3"). | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 6, FALSE)` | Status | Drop-down List | Options: Active, In Repair, Lost/Stolen, Decommissioned. | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 8, FALSE)` | Last Maintenance Date| Date | When maintenance was last performed. | > Formula: `=VLOOKUP(A2, 'Asset Inventory (Master List)'!$A$2:$J$1000, 9, FALSE)`

A visual summary of asset health and availability. - **Bar Chart:** Distribution of assets by status (Active, In Repair, Lost/Stolen). - **Pie Chart:** Percentage of assets by category. - **Gauge Meter (Conditional Formatting):** For tracking how many months since last maintenance.

Formulas Required

IF/AND Logic: Flag overdue maintenance: `=IF(AND(TODAY()-E2 > 365, F2<>"Decommissioned"), "Maintenance Due", "")`
COUNTIFS: Count total assets per employee: `=COUNTIFS('My Assigned Assets'!$D:$D, A2)`
