=TEXT(TODAY(),"yyyymmdd")&"-"&TEXT(COUNTA(InventoryMasterList!$A:$A)+1,"000")
Creates unique IDs based on date and sequence.
- Reorder Alert Flag:
=IF([@CurrentStockLevel] <= [@ReorderLevel], "REORDER REQUIRED", "OK")
Flags items that need restocking.
- Daily Summary (Daily Stock Reports):
Uses SUMIFS and FILTER functions to aggregate data by date and category.
Conditional Formatting Rules
For visual administration support, the template implements:
- Red fill for any row where Current Stock Level ≤ Reorder Level
- Amber highlight for transactions exceeding 100 units (potential audit flag)
- Green text for "OK" status in reorder alerts, red text for "REORDER REQUIRED"
- Data bars in the Quantity column to visualize transaction volumes
