Key formulas automate tracking and reporting:- Status Column:
=IF([@Current Stock Qty] <= [@Reorder Level], "Low Stock", IF([@Current Stock Qty] = 0, "Out of Stock", "In Stock")) - Last Updated: Use a simple formula in the cell:
=NOW()(auto-updates on save). Apply an IF condition to update only when changes are made. - Product Name (Auto-fill):
=VLOOKUP([@SKU], 'Product Master List'!$A:$D, 2, FALSE) - Category (Auto-fill):
=VLOOKUP([@SKU], 'Product Master List'!$A:$D, 3, FALSE) - Stock Change Tracking: Use SUMIFS in the Dashboard to aggregate transactions by client and product.
