Formulas & Calculations

The template includes several dynamic formulas to automate data processing and enhance accuracy:

Downtime Calculation: =IF(End_Time<>"", (End_Time - Start_Time)*24, 0) – automatically converts time difference into hours
Equipment Name Lookup: =VLOOKUP(Equipment_ID, Equipment_Master_List!A:D, 2, FALSE)
Daily Maintenance Count: =COUNTIF(Maintenance_Log!C:C, TODAY()) – used in dashboard for daily activity tracking
Uptime Percentage: =1 - (SUM(Downtime_Column)/24) – calculated across all equipment daily
Avg. Downtime per Task: =AVERAGEIF(Status_Column, "Completed", Downtime_Column)

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual tracking and identify critical items at a glance:

Downtime > 4 hours: Red fill with white text (highlight emergency repairs)
Maintenance Type = Emergency: Orange background with bold font
Status = Pending Review: Yellow highlight to flag unresolved tasks
Date is from yesterday or older: Gray background (outdated entries)
