FORMULAS & AUTOMATION
The template leverages advanced Excel functions for dynamic updates:- CURRENT QUANTITY: In the Inventory Master, use
=SUMIF(Daily Stock Transactions[Item ID], [@[Item ID]], Daily Stock Transactions[Quantity])to calculate current stock based on transactions. - COMPLIANCE STATUS: Use nested IF with TODAY() and EXPIRY DATE:
=IF([@[Expiry Date]] - NEXT DUE INSPECTION: Formula:
=[@[Last Audit Date]] + [@Audit Frequency] - EXPIRY ALERT FLAG: Use a helper column:
=IF(AND([@[Expiry Date]]<=TODAY()+7, [@[Expiry Date]]>=TODAY()), "Urgent", IF([@[Expiry Date]]
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING RULES
Apply the following to visually highlight critical status:- Expired Stock: Format cells with red fill and bold text where Expiry Date is before Today.
- Expiring Soon: Light yellow background for items expiring within 7 days.
- Pending Inspection: Orange highlight for items where Next Due Inspection is overdue (before today).
- Low Stock Threshold: Use a conditional rule based on the "Reorder Level" (add as a new column) to trigger yellow or red alerts when Quantity ≤ Reorder Level.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
- Data Entry: Populate the Inventory Master and Compliance Log sheets with accurate details. Use dropdowns for consistency.
- Transaction Logging: Record every stock movement (receipt, issue, return) in the "Daily Stock Transactions" sheet with Item ID, Batch Number, Date, Quantity, and Reason (e.g., Production Use).
- Automatic Updates: All formulas update in real-time. The Dashboard will reflect changes immediately.
- Audit Management: When an audit is completed, record it in the Compliance Log. The system auto-updates next due date and compliance status.
- Scheduled Checks: Review the Dashboard weekly to identify expiries, low stock alerts, and overdue audits.
- Export Reports: Use the "Reports & Exports" sheet for ready-to-share audit summaries or compliance certificates.
