Table Structures & Columns
Equipment Inventory Sheet:
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ID Number | Text (Auto-generated) | Unique identifier: MKT-EQ-001, etc. |
| Item Name | Text | < td>Name of equipment (e.g., Sony A7III Camera, DJI Mavic Drone).|
| Type | Dropdown: Camera, Audio, Lighting, Digital Tool, Display Unit, Software License | Categorizes equipment for filtering. |
| Brand/Model | Text | < td>Manufacturer and model number (e.g., Canon EOS R5).|
| Purchase Date | Date | < td>Date acquired.|
| Purchase Cost ($) | Currency | < td>Initial cost in USD.|
| Current Value ($) | Currency (Formula) | < td=Calculated using straight-line depreciation over 3 years.|
| Status | Dropdown: Available, In Use, Under Repair, Retired | < td>Real-time status tracking.|
| Assigned To Campaign | Text or Dropdown (from Campaign Mapping) | < td>Campaign name tied to this item (e.g., "Summer Brand Launch 2025").|
| Location | Text | < td>Physical or digital storage location.|
| Notes | Memo (multi-line text) | < td>Add maintenance history or special instructions.
The Campaign Mapping Sheet links each campaign to required equipment using a lookup table with columns: Campaign Name, Start Date, End Date, Objective (e.g., “Increase social media engagement”), and Required Equipment IDs (comma-separated). This enables automated population of the "Assigned To Campaign" field in the Inventory sheet via VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP.
Formulas Required
- Current Value ($):
=IF(ISBLANK([@Purchase Date]), "", [@[Purchase Cost ($)]] - ((TODAY() - [@Purchase Date])/365)*([@[Purchase Cost ($)]]/3))— Straight-line depreciation over 3-year lifespan. - Total Inventory Value ($) on Dashboard:
=SUM(EquipmentInventory[Current Value ($)]) - Status Count (Available vs In Use): Uses COUNTIFS to count items by status.
- Campaign Equipment Cost Summary: SUMIF linking Campaign Mapping IDs to Inventory Purchase Cost.
Conditional Formatting
- Items with "Status = Under Repair" → Red background.
- "Current Value ($)" less than 10% of purchase cost → Yellow highlight (potential write-off candidate).
- “Assigned To Campaign” blank and Status = “Available” → Light orange border (flag for unassigned assets).
- “Purchase Date” older than 3 years → Grayed-out font with warning icon.
