1. **Set up Master Data:** Begin by populating the Inventory Master List with all items, their categories, cost per unit, and initial stock levels. 2. **Enter Reorder Points & EOQs:** Manually set ROP based on historical usage or use a formula: `ROP = (Average Daily Usage × Lead Time in Days)`. 3. **Track Transactions:** After each stock change (e.g., delivery, sale), record it in the Transaction Log. The system updates Current Stock automatically. 4. **Generate Orders:** Review the Purchase Orders & Replenishment Planner. If “Reorder Recommendation” says “Yes”, create a new PO. 5. **Monitor Dashboard:** Use the Financial Dashboard to assess inventory turnover, total asset value, and COGS trends monthly. 6. **Review Reports:** Generate the Monthly Summary Report to compare performance across periods.Example Rows (Inventory Master List)
