Formulas Required
The template uses several dynamic formulas to ensure data integrity and automatic calculations:- Ending Stock Qty:
=IF(OR([@BeginningStock]=0,[@ReceivedQty]=0), 0, [@BeginningStock] + [@ReceivedQty] - [@SoldIssuedQty]) - Description Auto-fill:
=VLOOKUP(SKU_Code, Item_Master_List!$A$2:$H$100, 2, FALSE) - Category Auto-fill:
=VLOOKUP(SKU_Code, Item_Master_List!$A$2:$H$100, 3, FALSE) - Stock Status:
=IF([@EndingStockQty] < [@ReorderPoint], "Low", IF([@EndingStockQty] = 0, "Out of Stock", "In Stock")) - Inventory Turnover Rate (in Summary Sheet):
=SUM(All_Sold_Quantity) / AVERAGE(All_Beginning_Stock, All_Ending_Stock)
Conditional Formatting
- **Low Stock Alert:** Cells with "Low" in the Stock Status column are highlighted in **yellow**. - **Out of Stock:** Cells marked as "Out of Stock" use **red background** and bold text. - **High Received Qty (over 500 units):** Highlighted in green for quick identification of bulk movements. - **Negative Ending Stocks:** Red font with warning icon to flag data entry errors.Instructions for the User
1. Open the template and enable macros if prompted (for form validation and dropdowns). 2. Navigate to Data Entry (Quarterly). Select the correct Quarter ID from the dropdown. 3. Enter Location ID, then type or select a valid SKU from auto-suggestions. 4. The system will automatically populate Description, Category, UoM, and Reorder Point using data from Item Master List. 5. Input Beginning Stock Qty (from previous quarter), Received Qty (during this quarter), and Sold/Issued Qty. 6. The Ending Stock Quantity is calculated automatically. 7.
