Formulas Required

To maintain accuracy and automation, the following formulas are implemented:

• Current Stock in Inventory Master: =SUMIF(StockMovements!B:B, [Item ID], StockMovements!E:E)
  This dynamically calculates the current stock based on all movements linked to an item.
• Last Updated (Auto-Update): =IF(ISBLANK([Last Updated]), TODAY(), [Last Updated])
  Ensures timestamps update only when new entries are made.
• Reorder Alert Flag: =IF([Current Stock] <= [Reorder Level], "Low Stock", "OK")
  Displays a status indicator for items needing restocking.
• Total Items Count: Used in Dashboard: =COUNTA(InventoryMaster!B:B)
• Total Low-Stock Items: Used in Dashboard: =COUNTIF(DashboardSummary!F:F, "Low Stock")

Conditional Formatting Rules

To enhance usability and highlight critical data at a glance:

• Low Stock Items: If the "Current Stock" is less than or equal to the "Reorder Level", cells turn red with yellow text.
• Last Updated: Cells older than 30 days are highlighted in orange to flag stale inventory records.
• Movement Type: "Issued" entries are formatted in red; "Received" in green.
