Formulas & Automation

• Dynamic Stock Calculation: In “Inventory Master Data”, use: =SUMIFS(Daily_Stock_Movement_Log!$E:$E, Daily_Stock_Movement_Log!$B:$B, Inventory_Master_Data!A2) to calculate current stock level based on movement log.
• KPI Formulas:
  • Inventory Turnover Ratio: = (Annual COGS / Average Inventory Value)
  • Stockout Rate (%): = (Days with Zero Stock / Total Days) * 100
  • Pick Accuracy Rate: = (Correct Picks / Total Picks) * 100
• Data Validation: Use dropdowns, date pickers, and error alerts to prevent manual input errors.

This template uses advanced conditional formatting to highlight critical inventory states:

• Red: Stock levels below Reorder_Point (indicates urgent replenishment needed).
• Yellow: Stock between 80% and 100% of Reorder_Point (warning threshold).
• Green: Stock above Reorder_Point (healthy inventory levels).
• Bold Text & Background Color: Highlight products with high turnover or low accuracy rates on dashboards.
