Sheet 2: Equipment Inventory

This master table links all assets to their maintenance history. Key fields include: - Equipment ID (Primary Key) - Asset Name/Model - Serial Number - Purchase Date & Warranty Expiry - Last Maintenance Date - Next Scheduled Service (Calculated from intervals) - Lifecycle Stage: New, Active, Degraded, Decommissioned

Formulas Required

Auto-ID Generation: Use =TEXT(TODAY(), "YYYYMMDD")&TEXT(ROW()-1,"000")
Last Maintenance Date: =MAXIFS(MaintenanceLog[Date Scheduled/Reported], MaintenanceLog[Equipment ID], A2)
Next Service Due: =IF([@Last Maintenance Date]="", "", [@Last Maintenance Date] + 30) (adjust interval as needed)
Total Cost per Equipment: =SUMIFS(MaintenanceLog[Total Maintenance Cost (USD)], MaintenanceLog[Equipment ID], A2)
Status Indicator: Conditional formatting triggers based on date comparisons (e.g., overdue alerts)

Conditional Formatting Rules

Overdue Work Orders: Highlight red if Status ≠ "Completed" and Current Date > Scheduled Completion Date.
Pending Maintenance: Yellow highlight for records where Next Service Due is within 7 days.
High-Cost Repairs: Green background for maintenance costs exceeding $1,000 (configurable threshold).
Lifecycle Status: Color-code Asset Type Category with distinct color schemes (e.g., blue for trucks, green for warehouse equipment).
