Formulas Required

Automated Due Date Check: In the Task Manager Dashboard, use =IF(Due_Date.


    Reorder Trigger Logic: In Inventory Master List, use =IF(Current_Stock_Level<=Reorder_Point, "Alert - Reorder Needed", "OK").
    Pending Task Counter: Use =COUNTIFS(Status_Column, "Pending") to tally open tasks.
    Inventory Turnover: Calculate as: (Total Units Sold / Average Inventory) in Performance Sheet.
    Days of Stock Remaining: Formula: Current_Stock_Level / Average Daily Usage Rate.



Conditional Formatting

    Status Column: Color-coded with red for "Overdue", yellow for "In Progress", green for "Completed".
    Current Stock Level: Red text if below Reorder Point; amber if within 10% of threshold.
    Priorities: High-priority tasks highlighted in bold red; low-priority in light gray.
    Dates Close to Deadline: Use date-based rules (e.g., "3 days or less") to highlight urgent due dates.


User Instructions

    Open the template and enable editing (enable macros if prompted, though not required for core functionality).
    Begin by populating the Inventory Master List with all current stock items.
    The system will automatically generate tasks in the Task Manager Dashboard when stock levels fall below the reorder point.
    Add new tasks manually or edit existing ones—just modify fields and use dropdowns for consistency.
    Update task status as work progresses; real-time updates reflect on all dashboards.
    Use the Replenishment Tracker to log orders and monitor delivery timelines.
    Review the Performance & Analytics sheet monthly to assess inventory health, identify slow-moving stock, and reduce overstocking.
