  1. Open the Inventory tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
  2. Update Rented out for the weekend you're booking and log anything damaged; Available goes amber at zero and red if you've overbooked.
  3. Fleet value is total replacement cost. Use it for your insurance schedule and to spot items worth adding.
  4. Using Google Sheets? Upload the file to Google Drive, then open it with Google Sheets (or File → Import in an open sheet). Formulas, dropdowns and highlights carry over.

The file opens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded, and you own the copy outright.
