3. Pre-Built Formulas & Calculation Logic

Target Cell	Formula	Purpose
Net Total	`=SUM(F2*G2, H2, I2)`	Calculates Total Cost per entry
Asset Downtime %	`=COUNTIF(K:K, "Delayed")/COUNTA(A:A)`	Measures % of maintenance efficiency
Total Expenditure	`=SUM(J:J)`	Aggregates total maintenance spend
Technician Load	`=COUNTIF(L:L, "J. Smith")`	Count work orders by technician

4. Data Dictionary & Dropdown Validation Rules

Column	Data Format	Required	Validation List
Category	Text	Yes	Machinery, Logistics, Facility, IT, Fleet, Automation
Service Type	Text	Yes	Preventative, Corrective, Emergency
Status	Text	Yes	Completed, In-Progress, Delayed, Cancelled
Technician	Text	Yes	J. Smith, M. Ross, R. Diaz, L. Chen, A. Volkov, T. Scott

5. Summary KPI Dashboard

Metric	Calculation / Logic	Trigger (Red)	Trigger (Green)
Total Spend	`SUM(Net Total)`	> $10,000	< $5,000
Completion Rate	`(Completed / Total Orders)`	< 80%	> 95%
Emergency Ratio	`(Corrective / Total Orders)`	> 40%	< 10%

Conditional Formatting Rule: Select 'Net Total' column -> Highlight Cells Rules -> Greater Than -> 1000 -> Light Red Fill with Dark Red Text.
