Formulas Used in the Main Sheet

J2 (Next Audit Due Date): =IF(H2<>"", DATE(YEAR(H2)+0, MONTH(H2)+6, DAY(H2)), "")
This formula automatically calculates a 6-month audit cycle after the last audit date.
Status Color Code (Conditional Formatting): Based on column H.
Expiry Warning (Dynamic Column): Use a helper column to flag products expiring within 30 days: =IF(AND(E2<>"", E2<=TODAY()+30), "Expiring Soon", "")

Conditional Formatting Rules (Main Sheet)

Expiry Warnings: Highlight in yellow if expiry date is within 14 days.
Non-Compliant Items: Red background with white text for rows where H = "Non-Compliant".
Pending Reviews: Orange fill for status “Pending Review”.
Low Stock Alert: If L < 10, apply light red border and bold text.

Sheet 2: Compliance Summary Dashboard (Summary View)

This sheet presents a high-level, visual summary of compliance across all products. It's the centerpiece of the Summary View, enabling quick decision-making by management and compliance officers.

Key Elements:

KPIs at Top:
- Total Products in Inventory: (Count of all rows in tblProductInventory)
- Compliant Items: (Count where H = "Compliant")
- Pending Reviews: (Count where H = "Pending Review")
- Non-Compliant Items: (Count where H = "Non-Compliant")
Bar Chart: “Product Compliance Status by Category” – showing compliance rate per category.
Pie Chart: “Distribution of Product Types and Compliance” – visualizes product types and their compliance status.
Data Table: Summary table listing top 10 suppliers by number of non-compliant items (for accountability).

Formulas for Dashboard

=COUNTA(tblProductInventory[Product ID]) – Total products.
=COUNTIF(tblProductInventory[Compliance Status (Manual)], "Compliant") – Compliant count.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(tblProductInventory[Expiry Date] – Products expiring within 30 days.
