Formulas Required
The template uses a combination of advanced Excel formulas to automate tracking and analysis:
- Status Calculation:
=IF(M13="", IF(H13=0, "Expired", IF(H13<=G13, "Low Stock", "In Stock")), M13) - Auto-Generate Product ID:
=TEXT(TODAY(),"YYYYMMDD")&"-"&TEXT(ROW()-2,"000") - Alerts for Low Stock:
=IF(H13<=G13, "Reorder Required!", "")(displayed in a separate column). - Total Inventory Value:
=SUMPRODUCT((tblInventoryMaster[Current Stock Quantity]) * (tblInventoryMaster[Standard Cost per Unit ($)]))(calculated on the Dashboard sheet).
Conditional Formatting
To enhance readability and risk detection, the following conditional formatting rules are applied:
- Low Stock: Red fill with white text when stock level ≤ reorder threshold.
- Expiring Soon: Orange highlight if expiry date is within 7 days.
- Expired Items: Dark red background with strikethrough for expired items (based on current date).
- Status Indicators: Color-coded icons (green = In Stock, yellow = Low Stock, red = Expired).
