Formulas Required
The template leverages key Excel formulas to automate reporting and reduce manual errors: - Auto-Generate Supply ID:`=TEXT(COUNTA(A:A)+1,"SUP-000")` → Appends unique ID based on row count. - Next Expected Delivery Date:
`=IF(ISBLANK([@Last Order Date]), "", [@[Last Order Date]] + VLOOKUP([@Supplier Name], SupplierPerformanceLog!A:D, 3, FALSE))`
Uses lead time from the Supplier Performance Log. - Reorder Alert Status:
`=IF([@Current Stock Count] <= [@Reorder Level], "REORDER NOW", "OK")` - Forecasted Usage:
`=SUMIFS(ClientOrders!C:C, ClientOrders!A:A, [@Item Name]) * 0.75` → Predicts future needs based on historical usage. - Running Total of Orders per Supplier:
`=COUNTIF(SupplierPerformanceLog!B:B, [@Supplier Name])`
Conditional Formatting
- **Stock Levels**: Red fill for items where "Current Stock Count" ≤ "Reorder Level". - **Delivery Alerts**: Orange text and bold font if delivery date is within 7 days. - **High-Cost Items**: Yellow highlight if Unit Cost > $100 (for budget monitoring). - **Missing Supplier Info**: Light red background for entries where Supplier Name is blank.User Instructions
