Table Structures and Columns
1. Maintenance Log (Main)
This table captures every maintenance event performed on an inventory item. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|------------| | Asset ID | Text/Number (Unique) | Unique identifier for each equipment or inventory item. Linked to Inventory Master. | | Item Name | Text | Descriptive name of the asset (e.g., “Industrial Blender Model X”.) | | Serial Number | Text/Number | Manufacturer serial number for tracking purposes. | | Location | Text (Dropdown) | Location where the item is currently stored or deployed (e.g., Warehouse A, Production Floor 2). | | Maintenance Type | Dropdown (Preventive, Corrective, Emergency) | Type of maintenance performed. | | Date Performed | Date Format (DD/MM/YYYY) | Date when maintenance was completed. | | Technician Name | Text | Name of the technician or team who carried out the work. | | Work Description | Text (Long) | Detailed notes on what was inspected, repaired, or replaced. | | Parts Used | Text/List of items used (e.g., “O-Ring #451, Bearing Model B7”) | List of spare parts consumed during maintenance. | | Cost Incurred (£) | Currency Format (£) | Total cost for parts and labor. | | Next Due Date | Date Format (DD/MM/YYYY) | Automatically calculated based on maintenance frequency and date performed. | | Status | Dropdown (Active, Under Maintenance, Decommissioned, Reserved) | Current operational state of the asset. |2. Inventory Master
This sheet maintains a master record of all inventory items with status tracking. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|------------| | Asset ID | Text/Number (Unique) | Primary key, matches Maintenance Log. | | Item Name | Text | Full name or model number. | | Category (e.g., Machinery, Tools, Consumables) | Dropdown List (from Data Validation sheet) | Helps group assets for reporting. | | Quantity Available | Number (Integer) | Current stock count at the time of last audit. | | Reorder Level (Threshold) | Number (Integer) | Minimum quantity that triggers a restock alert. | | Last Audit Date | Date Format (DD/MM/YYYY) | When the inventory was last physically verified. | | Location ID | Text/Number (from dropdown list) | Identifies warehouse or department location. | | Supplier Name | Text (Optional) | Vendor from whom the item was purchased. |Formulas Required
The template incorporates dynamic formulas for automation:- Next Due Date:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK([@[Date Performed]]), ISBLANK([@[Frequency (Days)]])), "", [@[Date Performed]] + [@[Frequency (Days)]]) - Status Update: Uses nested IFs to reflect real-time status based on maintenance dates and current activity.
- Low Stock Alert:
=IF([@Quantity Available] <= [@Reorder Level], "REORDER REQUIRED", "IN STOCK") - Total Maintenance Cost by Asset: Use SUMIFS to aggregate all costs per Asset ID from the Maintenance Log.
- Last Maintenance Date (per asset): MAXIFS formula to find the most recent maintenance date for a specific item.
Conditional Formatting
To enhance visual clarity and user awareness, conditional formatting is applied across sheets:- Maintenance Log: Red highlights rows where “Next Due Date” is within 7 days. Orange for 8–14 days.
- Inventory Master: Light red fills for items where “Quantity Available” is below the “Reorder Level.” Green fill for items with sufficient stock.
- Client Dashboard: Color-coded traffic light indicators (red/yellow/green) for KPIs like maintenance compliance rate and inventory turnover.
User Instructions
- Begin by populating the Inventory Master with all existing assets, including quantities, categories, and reorder levels.
- Add new maintenance entries in the Maintenance Log (Main). Use dropdowns for consistency.
- The “Next Due Date” updates automatically based on frequency. Ensure maintenance frequency is set per asset type in the Data Validation sheet.
- Never edit formulas directly—use only data entry cells with predefined dropdowns and formatting.
- Review the Client Dashboard monthly to monitor performance metrics and identify issues proactively.
- Use “Print Preview” before exporting to PDF for client reporting. The dashboard is optimized for print and presentation.
