Formulas Required

The template leverages Excel formulas for accuracy and automation:

• Dynamic Stock Quantity: `=SUMIF(Transaction!$A:$A, InventoryMaster!$A2, Transaction!$D:$D)` — sums all stock-in minus outflows.
• Inventory Value: `=Current Stock Quantity * Cost per Unit` — auto-calculated in the valuation sheet.
• Reorder Status Indicator: `=IF(Current Stock Quantity <= Reorder Level, "Order Needed", "In Stock")` — color-coded via conditional formatting.
• Daily Change Tracking: `=COUNTIFS(Transaction!$B:$B, "Sold", Transaction!$A:$A, InventoryMaster!$A2)` — tracks units sold per product.

Conditional Formatting

To enhance readability and highlight key metrics:

• Stock below reorder level turns red with yellow border.
• High-value products (e.g., over $100/unit) are highlighted in blue.
• Sales velocity above 50 units/month is marked in green for fast movers.
• Negative stock levels trigger an alert with bold red text and warning icon.
