Key Formulas Required

Days Until Due: =MAX(0, [Next Compliance Due Date] - TODAY())
ROP Status: =IF(Current Stock Level <= ROP, "Below ROP", IF(Current Stock Level <= (ROP * 1.2), "Near ROP", "Sufficient"))
Planned Reorder Date: =TODAY() + [Lead Time] - (Current Stock Level / Average Daily Consumption)

Status Update: Use IF statements to auto-update compliance status based on due date vs. today.

Conditional Formatting Rules

High Risk Items: Highlight entire row in red if Days Until Due ≤ 7 OR Stock Level ≤ ROP.
Moderate Risk: Yellow fill if Days Until Due between 8 and 14 days or stock level within 20% of ROP.
Green for Compliance: Light green background when Status = "Compliant" and due date is more than 30 days away.
Data Entry Alerts: Highlight empty fields in red using "Highlight Cells Rules" (e.g., if Due Date is blank).
