Best Practices for Excel Implementation:

  1. Conditional Formatting: Set the "Pass/Fail" column to highlight cells containing "Fail" in Red and "Pass" in Green.
  2. Date Formulas: Use =EDATE([Date of Inspection], 6) in the "Next Due Date" column to automatically calculate the 6-month interval (or adjust as per OSHA/local regulatory requirements).
  3. Data Validation: Use the "Data Validation" feature in Excel to create dropdown lists for the columns listed in the "Criteria Guide" to ensure consistent reporting.
  4. Freeze Panes: Freeze the top row so the headers remain visible while scrolling through long inspection logs.
