Table Structures and Columns (Supply List Sheet)
The primary sheet, "Supply List (Client View)", is structured as a comprehensive inventory and forecasting table with the following columns:
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Item ID | Text/Number (Auto-generated) | Unique identifier for each supply item (e.g., SPLY-001). |
| Supply Item Name | Text | Name of the material, equipment, or service (e.g., Raw Plastic Resin, Cloud Storage). |
| Type of Supply | Dropdown List (Text) | Categorization: Material, Equipment, Software License, Service. |
| Current Inventory Level | Numeric (Integer or Decimal) | How much of the item is currently on hand. |
| Reorder Threshold | Numeric (Decimal) | Minimum level at which a new order should be placed. |
| Lead Time (Days) | Numeric (Integer) | Average number of days from order placement to delivery. |
| Monthly Usage (Units) | Numeric (Decimal) | Estimated monthly consumption based on historical data or projected growth. |
| Growth Factor (x1.5, x2, etc.) | Number (Percentage) | Multiplier indicating expected increase due to growth planning (e.g., 1.5 for 50% increase). |
| Forecasted Monthly Usage | Numeric (Formula-based) | Calculated as: Monthly Usage × Growth Factor |
| Next Reorder Date | Date (Formula-based) | Calculated as: Current Date + Lead Time - (Current Inventory / Forecasted Monthly Usage) |
| Status | Conditional Text (Dropdown) | Indicates supply health: "Optimal", "Low Stock", "Critical", "On Order". |
| Priority Level | Dropdown: High, Medium, Low | Ranks importance of supply in growth planning. |
Formulas Required
- Forecasted Monthly Usage:
=IF(Monthly_Usage > 0, [Monthly Usage] * [Growth Factor], 0) - Next Reorder Date:
=IF([Current Inventory] <= [Reorder Threshold], TODAY() + [Lead Time] - (ROUND([Current Inventory]/[Forecasted Monthly Usage], 2)), "Not Applicable") - Status (Conditional Logic):
=IF([Current Inventory] <= [Reorder Threshold], "Low Stock", IF([Current Inventory] <= ([Reorder Threshold] * 0.5), "Critical", IF([Forecasted Monthly Usage] = 0, "Not Applicable", "Optimal")))
Conditional Formatting
- Status Column: Red background for “Critical”, yellow for “Low Stock”, green for “Optimal”.
- Next Reorder Date: Highlight in red if the date is within 7 days.
- Growth Factor: Color scale to visually show higher growth multipliers (e.g., green for 1.5, orange for 2.0, red for 3.0+).
- Forecasted Monthly Usage: Light blue fill when exceeding historical average by more than 20%.
