Formulas Required

To support productivity analysis and automation, the template includes several essential formulas:

=TODAY() – Auto-fills current date in the "Date & Time" column.
=IF(Status="Open", "Pending", IF(Status="Closed", "Completed")) – Tracks task progression status.
=NETWORKDAYS(Start_Date, Due_Date) – Calculates number of working days until due date (for alerts).
=SUMIFS(Cost_Incurred, Status, "Closed") – Totals all closed maintenance costs.
=COUNTIFS(Task_Type,"Preventive", Status,"Closed") – Counts preventive actions completed.
=IF(Next_Due_Date – Flags overdue entries in the Reports & Alerts sheet.


    =VLOOKUP(Equipment_ID, Equipment_List!A:B, 2, FALSE) – Optional to fetch equipment name from a reference list.



Conditional Formatting Rules
This template uses conditional formatting to enhance visibility and responsiveness:

    Status Column: Green if "Closed", Yellow if "Open", Red if "On Hold" or overdue.
    Next Due Date Column: Light red background when due date is within 3 days of today.
    Maintenance Duration > 4 hrs: Highlighted in orange to flag longer-than-usual tasks (indicating possible inefficiencies).
    Cost > $100: Background turns purple to draw attention to high-cost tasks.
    Overdue Tasks: Entire row highlighted in red with bold text for immediate visibility.


User Instructions
How to Use:

    Open the template and navigate to the Maintenance Log (Main) sheet.

    When complete, update status to "Closed" and record duration and cost.
    Review the Reports & Alerts sheet weekly to identify overdue items or trends in maintenance frequency.
    To print: Go to the Printable Summary sheet. Use "Page Layout" → "Fit to 1 page wide by 2 pages tall" for optimal printing.
