Implementation Guide (Excel Usage)

  1. Conditional Formatting: Highlight the 'Status' column (e.g., "Overdue" = Red, "Upcoming" = Yellow, "Scheduled" = Green).
  2. Date Logic: Use the formula =IF(G2<TODAY(),"Overdue", "On Track") in the 'Status' column to automate tracking.
  3. Data Validation: Use 'Data Validation' (List) on the 'Frequency' and 'Priority' columns to ensure data integrity.
  4. Filtering: Enable 'Filter' on the header row to allow sorting by 'Next Due Date' or 'Technician'.
