Key Formulas
- In the Content Calendar, column I (Inventory Status) uses:
=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH(InventoryTracker!A:A, E2)), InventoryTracker!D:D) >= F2, "In Stock", IF(SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH(InventoryTracker!A:A, E2)), InventoryTracker!D:D) < F2*0.5, "Out of Stock", "Low")) - In the Inventory Tracker, column H (Last Replenished) uses:
=IF(D2<>D1, TODAY(), H2)(triggered by data change; requires VBA for full automation or manual input) - In the Reorder Alerts, a dynamic list pulls items where:
=FILTER(InventoryTracker!A2:K100, InventoryTracker!D2:D100 <= InventoryTracker!E2:E100)
Conditional Formatting
- In the Inventory Tracker, color-code cells in column D (Quantity On Hand):
- Red if <= Minimum Reorder Level
- Amber if between 50% and 100% of reorder level
- Green if above reorder level.
- In the Content Calendar, color-code Status column: Green = Ready, Yellow = Delayed, Red = Out of Stock.
User Instructions
- Each team member must update their assigned inventory items daily or weekly via the Inventory Tracker.
- Marketing teams must populate the Content Calendar with campaign details and required inventory before launch planning begins.
- The Status Dashboard auto-updates when changes are made to either Inventory Tracker or Content Calendar—do not manually edit it.
- Reorder Alerts sheet is sent automatically via email if linked to Microsoft Power Automate; otherwise, check weekly.
- Never delete rows—use “Mark as Inactive” instead for archived items.
- Use dropdowns in columns with defined lists to maintain data integrity.
