Table Structures and Columns
Sheet 1: Maintenance Log (Master Data)
This is the primary operational table storing all maintenance records. It is structured as an Excel Table (using Ctrl+T) for dynamic filtering, sorting, and formula integration.

| Log ID (Auto) | Text/Number (Auto-increment) | Unique identifier for each maintenance record. |
| Date of Entry | Date | Date when the maintenance was logged. |
| Asset ID | Text (from Equipment Inventory) | Link to a specific vehicle or piece of equipment (e.g., VEH-034). |
| Equipment Type | List (Vehicle, Trailer, Forklift, etc.) | Type of asset involved in maintenance. |
| Service Type | <List (Preventive, Corrective, Emergency) | Categorizes the nature of maintenance. |
| Maintenance Date | Date | Date when the actual maintenance was performed. |
| Hours Since Last Service | <Number (Decimal) | Operating hours elapsed since previous service. |
| Mileage / Usage Count | Number | Kilometers/miles driven or cycles completed. |
| Description of Work Performed | Text (Long) | Detailed note on repairs, replacements, or inspections. |
| Technician Name | Text | Name of the maintenance personnel. |
| Status | List (Completed, In Progress, Scheduled) | Current status of the service task. |
| Cost Incurred (USD) | Number (Currency) | Total cost associated with labor and parts. |

| Model/Make | Text | Description of model and manufacturer. |
| Last Service Date | Date | Last recorded maintenance date for the asset. |
| Scheduled Maintenance Interval (Hours) | Number | Recommended service interval in operating hours. |
Formulas Required
- NEXT DUE DATE:
=IF([@[Maintenance Date]]= "", "", [@ [Maintenance Date]] + [@[Scheduled Maintenance Interval (Hours)]]*0.5)– Assumes a 1-day = 2 hours operating time; can be adjusted based on actual usage. - STATUS LOGIC:
=IF([@[Maintenance Date]]="", "Scheduled", IF([@ [Next Due Date]] - COST SUMMARIES (Dashboard):
SUMIFS(Maintenance Log[Cost Incurred], Maintenance Log[Service Type], "Preventive") - OVERDUE COUNT:
=COUNTIFS(Maintenance Log[Status], "Overdue", Maintenance Log[Maintenance Date], "<"&TODAY())
Conditional Formatting
To enhance visual tracking and alert users to critical issues:
- Overdue Services: Apply red fill with white text to rows where "Next Due Date" is earlier than today’s date.
- High-Cost Repairs: Highlight cells in the "Cost Incurred" column above $2,000 in dark orange.
- Pending Tasks: Use yellow background for entries where “Status” is “In Progress” or “Scheduled” but within 7 days of due date.
- High-Usage Assets: Apply color scale to "Hours Since Last Service" to identify assets nearing scheduled maintenance.
