TABLE STRUCTURE AND COLUMNS (Main Inventory Log)

The primary data table is located in the "Main Inventory Log (Quarterly)" sheet.

Supports filtering. | | Unit of Measure (UoM) | Dropdown List | e.g., Pieces, Boxes, Kilograms. Ensures consistency in stock tracking. | | Beginning Balance (Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4) | Number (Decimal) | Quantity at the start of the quarter; entered manually per quarter column. | | Received During Quarter | Number (Decimal) | Total units received via purchase orders or transfers during the period. | | Issued/Used During Quarter | Number (Decimal) | Units distributed to departments, production, or shipped out. | | Ending Balance (Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4) | Formula Field (Auto-calculated) | Formula: Beginning Balance + Received – Issued. Updated automatically. | | Location / Rack ID | Text/Number | Physical storage location within the warehouse for easy retrieval. | | Reorder Point (Min Level) | Number (Decimal) | Threshold below which a reorder must be triggered. | | Current Status (In Stock, Low Stock, Out of Stock) | Conditional Field (Auto-updated) | Based on Ending Balance compared to Reorder Point. | | Last Updated Date | Date Format | Auto-populated timestamp when record is edited. | | Updated By (Admin Name) | Text/Name List (Dropdown) | Name of the administrative user who last updated the entry. |

FORMULAS REQUIRED

- Ending Balance Formula: `=BegBalance + Received - Issued` Applied across each quarter column dynamically. - Status Indicator Formula: `=IF(EndingBalance <= ReorderPoint, "Low Stock", IF(EndingBalance = 0, "Out of Stock", "In Stock"))` - Last Updated Auto-Timestamp (Using VBA or Formula): Use `=NOW()` in combination with conditional logic to prevent updates unless changes occur.

CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Enhances data visibility and alerts for administrative staff: - Low Stock Alert: Red fill with white text for items where Ending Balance ≤ Reorder Point. - Out of Stock Items: Dark red background, bold font. - Increase/Decrease Trend Indicator: Green (upward arrow) if quantity increased from prior quarter; red (downward arrow) if decreased. - High Value Items: Gold fill for items with a unit cost > $100.

Fill in Item ID, Name, Category, Unit of Measure, Reorder Point for each item. 3. Enter Beginning Balance at the start of the quarter. 4. Record all receipts and issues daily/weekly; update Received and Issued fields accordingly. 5. Use the “Reorder & Alert Tracker” sheet to generate purchase orders when status is “Low Stock.” 6.
