Data Table Structures & Columns
The main data table is located on the "Daily Inventory Log" sheet and consists of the following columns: | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-----------| | Row ID | Text/Number (Auto-generated) | Unique entry number. Formatted as: EMP-YYYYMMDD-NNN | | Date | Date (mm/dd/yyyy format) | Daily log date, defaulted to today’s date via =TODAY(). | | Employee ID | Text (e.g., EMP123) | Unique identifier for the employee entering data. Pre-filled based on user login or dropdown selection. | | Employee Name | Text (from lookup) | Auto-populated from employee master list using VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP. | | Item Code | Text/Number | Stock-keeping unit (SKU) code of the item audited or processed. | | Item Name | Text | Full name of the product, pulled from inventory database via lookup if available. | | Location ID | Text (e.g., A1-B2) | Physical storage location within warehouse. Can be selected from a dropdown list. | | Quantity on Hand (System) | Number (Integer) | System-recorded inventory count at time of audit. | | Quantity Counted (Actual) | Number (Integer) | Physical count observed by employee during audit or replenishment. | | Variance Amount | Formula-Driven Calculated Field = ABS([Quantity on Hand] - [Quantity Counted]) | Difference between system and actual counts. | | Variance % | Formula: =IF([Qty On Hand]=0, 0, ([Variance Amount]/[Qty On Hand]))*100 | Percentage deviation from expected inventory level. | | Audit Status | Text (Dropdown: "Completed", "In Progress", "Pending Review") | Tracks audit lifecycle. | | Pick/Order ID (if applicable) | Text/Number | Linked to order or picking ticket, if relevant. | | Time Started (HH:MM) | Time format (e.g., 08:15) | Start time of inventory task. | | Time Ended (HH:MM) | Time format (e.g., 09:45) | End time of task. | | Duration (Hours): Formula = IF([Time Ended] < [Time Started], ([Time Ended] + 1), [Time Ended]) - [Time Started] | Computed in decimal hours. Used to calculate efficiency rate. |Required Formulas
The template uses a robust set of formulas to automate KPI calculations and maintain data consistency:- Inventory Accuracy Rate (Daily):
Formula:
=1 - (SUMIF(Audit Status, "Completed", Variance Amount) / SUMIF(Audit Status, "Completed", Quantity on Hand))Result expressed as a percentage. Used in the Dashboard. - Pick/Pack Efficiency:
Formula:
=IF([Duration (Hours)] > 0, [Total Items Picked] / [Duration (Hours)], 0)Where Total Items Picked is derived from filtered rows related to pick tasks. - Stockout Incidents:
Formula:
=COUNTIFS([Quantity Counted], "=0", [Item Status], "Out of Stock") - Overstock Alert: Formula: =IF([Qty On Hand] > [Reorder Point Threshold], "Yes", "No") — threshold pulled from a reference table.
- Dynamic Date Range Filtering: Used in dashboards to filter data by last 7 days, 30 days, or custom range using FILTER() or advanced table filtering.
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance visual interpretation and promote quick decision-making:- Variance % > 5%: Highlighted in red background with black text.
- Variance % between 1% and 5%: Yellow highlight.
- Variance % < 1%: Green highlight (indicating accuracy).
- Stockout Incidents > 0: Red border on entire row.
- Pick Efficiency < 50 items/hour: Yellow warning in Dashboard cell.
