  • Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    Can I use this template for both purchases and sales?
    Yes, the "Type" column distinguishes between "Purchase" (increases stock) and "Sale" (decreases stock), allowing dual functionality within one system.
    Is data secured or can it be accidentally overwritten?
    The template is designed with protected cells. Only input fields on the Invoice Entry sheet are editable by default. The Inventory Master is locked to prevent accidental changes to formulas and critical values.
    How often should I update the inventory master?
    It’s recommended to review and update manually at least once per week, or automate updates using VBA if your environment supports it. The template is designed for minimal manual effort.
