Conditional Formatting Rules

Status = “Under Repair”: Red background with white text.
Next Service Due within 30 days: Yellow fill; within 7 days: Red fill with bold font.
Current Value < 10% of Purchase Cost: Light gray background — indicates asset nearing end-of-life.
Assigned To Campaign ID = Blank: Blue border — prompts user to assign equipment to active campaigns.

Instructions for the User

Step 1: Enter all equipment details in the “Equipment Inventory” sheet. Use dropdowns for Category, Location, and Status to ensure consistency.

Step 2: In “Marketing Campaigns,” define each campaign’s name, dates, budget, objectives (e.g., brand awareness), and assign Equipment IDs using the lookup feature.

Step 3: Update “Log & Maintenance History” after every service or assignment change — this ensures audit compliance.

Step 4: Review the “Dashboards” sheet weekly. Monitor utilization rates and budget-to-equipment-cost ratios to identify underused assets or overspending.
