Table Structure and Columns (Inventory List)
The main Inventory List sheet contains a structured table with the following columns: | Column Name | Data Type | Description | |-------------|-----------|-----------| | Product ID | Text (Auto-generated) | Unique ID for each item, e.g., HMP-001 | | Product Name | Text (Required) | Full name of household product (e.g., "Toilet Paper 12-Ply") | | Category | Dropdown List | Select from predefined categories: Cleaning Supplies, Food & Beverages, Personal Care, Kitchen Essentials, Tools & Hardware | | Subcategory | Text or Dropdown | Further classification (e.g., "Detergents", "Baking Ingredients") | | Current Stock (Units) | Number (Integer) | Current quantity in stock | | Unit of Measure | Dropdown List | e.g., Units, Rolls, Bottles, Boxes, Liters | | Reorder Level | Number (Integer) | Threshold at which a reorder is recommended | | Last Purchased Date | Date Field | Most recent purchase date | | Next Expiry Date (if applicable) | Date Field (Optional) | For perishables or time-sensitive products | | Price per Unit (USD) | Currency Format ($) | Cost per unit at last purchase | | Total Value in Stock ($)| Formula Column | = Current Stock * Price per Unit | | Status (Auto-Calculated) | Text/Conditional Formatting | "Low Stock", "In Good Supply", or "Overstocked" based on thresholds |Formulas Required
The template includes several essential formulas to ensure automation and accuracy:- Status Column:
=IF([@Current Stock] < [@Reorder Level], "Low Stock", IF([@Current Stock] > (2 * [@Reorder Level]), "Overstocked", "In Good Supply")) - Total Value in Stock:
=[@[Current Stock]] * [@[[Price per Unit (USD)]]] - Days Since Last Purchase:
=TODAY() - [@[[Last Purchased Date]]] - Expiry Alert (if applicable):
=IF([@[Next Expiry Date]] < TODAY(), "Expired/Soon Expire", "Valid") - Total Number of Items: Used in the Dashboard with:
=COUNTA(InventoryList[Product Name]) - Sum of Total Value:
=SUM(InventoryList[Total Value in Stock ($)])
Conditional Formatting Rules
To improve usability and quick identification, the template uses smart conditional formatting:- Low Stock Items: Red fill with white text for rows where Current Stock < Reorder Level.
- Overstocked Items: Orange background if stock exceeds double the reorder level.
- Pending Expiry (within 30 days): Amber highlight for items expiring soon.
- Dates Older than 60 Days: Yellow shading for last purchased date more than two months ago—indicating potential need to reorder.
