Table Structures & Column Definitions
1. Monthly Stock Summary (Main Data Entry Sheet)
This table captures the core monthly inventory snapshots.| Column | Description | Data Type |
|---|---|---|
| Month & Year | Selected month and year of reporting (e.g., January 2025) | Date (Dropdown: Month-Year) |
| Item ID / SKU | Unique identifier for the product or material | Text/Number, linked to Item Master List via data validation |
| Description | Name or description of the item (auto-filled from master list) | Text (read-only after lookup) |
| Category | Type of stock (e.g., Raw Material, Finished Goods, Packaging) | <Text (from Master List or dropdown) |
| Opening Stock | Units on hand at the start of the month | Numeric (positive integer) |
| Closing Stock | Units on hand at the end of the month (calculated from closing balance in log) | Numeric (automated via formula) |
| Total Received | Sum of all incoming units during the month | Numeric (sum from Stock Movement Log) |
| Total Issued / Sold | Units shipped, used, or consumed in the month | Numeric (sum from log) |
| Stock Variance (Units) | Difference between expected and actual closing stock: Opening + Received – Issued – Closing = Variance | Numeric (formula-driven) |
| Variance (%) | Percentage variance relative to total issued or average inventory | Numeric (%), calculated as (Variance / Total Issued) * 100 |
| Stock Turnover Ratio (Monthly) | Measures how quickly inventory is sold and replaced: Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory | Numeric, formula-driven (COGS/AVG Stock) |
| Days of Stock on Hand | How many days current stock would last at current usage rate: (Closing Stock / Avg Daily Usage) * 1 day | Numeric, calculated from daily demand data |
| Reorder Status | Status based on closing stock vs. reorder point (e.g., “Low”, “Normal”, “Critical”) | Text with conditional color coding |
2. Item Master List (Reference Sheet)
This is a static reference table used to populate dropdowns and validate data entry. | Column | Description | Data Type | |--------|-------------|----------| | SKU | Unique product code | Text/Number | | Description | Full name of the item | Text | | Category | Classification of the stock type (e.g., Electronics, Chemicals) | Text | | Unit of Measure (UoM) | e.g., Units, Kilograms, Liters | Text | | Reorder Point (ROP) | Minimum level before reordering trigger | Numeric | | Lead Time (Days) | Supplier delivery time after order placed | Numeric |Formulas Required
The template leverages dynamic Excel formulas for automation and accuracy:- Closing Stock:
=Opening Stock + Total Received - Total Issued - Variance (Units):
=Opening Stock + Total Received - Total Issued - Closing Stock - Variance (%):
=IF(Total Issued=0, 0, ABS(Variance)/Total Issued) - Stock Turnover Ratio (Monthly):
=Total Issued / AVERAGE(Opening Stock, Closing Stock) - Days of Stock on Hand:
=Closing Stock / (Total Issued / Days in Month) - Reorder Status:
=IF(Closing Stock <= Reorder Point, "Critical", IF(Closing Stock <= Reorder Point * 1.2, "Low", "Normal"))
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance visual clarity and highlight anomalies:- Variance (Units): Red text for negative values (overstock), yellow for variance > 5% of total issued.
- Reorder Status: "Critical" cells are highlighted in red; "Low" in orange; "Normal" in green.
- Stock Turnover Ratio: Green if above benchmark (e.g., 4.0), red if below 1.5.
- Days of Stock on Hand: Red if >30 days, yellow if >15 days, green otherwise.
