Location Text (Dropdown List) Sites or departments: e.g., "Factory Floor", "Warehouse B", "Maintenance Shop".

Status Text (Dropdown: Active, In Maintenance, Out of Service, Decommissioned) Current operational state.

Last Service Date Date Date of most recent maintenance or inspection.

Next Due Date (Service) Date (Formula-based) Automatically calculated as: Last Service Date + 180 days.

Formulas Required

Next Due Date: =IF([@Status]="In Maintenance", "", IF([@Last Service Date]="", "", [@[Last Service Date]] + [@Maintenance Interval]))
Status Indicator (for Dashboard): Uses a simple IF statement to classify assets as “At Risk” if Next Due is within 30 days.
Days Until Due: =IF([@Status]="Out of Service", "N/A", IF([@Next Due Date]="", "No History", DATEDIF(TODAY(), [@Next Due Date], "D")))
Total Active Equipment: =COUNTIFS(Status, "Active") (used in Dashboard KPIs)
Equipment Utilization Rate: =COUNTIFS(Status, "Active") / COUNTA(Asset ID) * 100

Conditional Formatting

The template uses smart conditional formatting to highlight critical information at a glance:

Red Highlight: If "Days Until Due" ≤ 7 (imminent service).
Amber Highlight: If "Days Until Due" is between 8 and 30 days.
Green Background: For assets with status = "Active".
Pink Text: For records where status is "Out of Service".
