Data Structure and Table Layouts

Sheet 1: Data Entry (Raw Data)

This sheet serves as the source of truth for all incoming inventory data. It contains a structured table that captures detailed records of each stock movement.

Required Formulas and Calculations

The KPI Dashboard sheet relies heavily on dynamic formulas to pull data from the raw input sheet and calculate key metrics:

• Total Inventory Value: =SUMIFS(DataEntry[Current Stock Level], DataEntry[Category], "Raw Materials") * AVERAGEIF(DataEntry[Category], "Raw Materials", DataEntry[Unit Cost])
• Stock Turnover Ratio: =SUMIFS(DataEntry[Unit Sold], DataEntry[Date Entered], ">="&DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-1,MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())), DataEntry[Date Entered], "<="&TODAY()) / AVERAGE(DataEntry[Current Stock Level])
• Stockout Rate: =COUNTIFS(DataEntry[Current Stock Level], 0) / COUNTA(DataEntry[Item ID])
• Carrying Cost of Inventory: =SUMPRODUCT(DataEntry[Current Stock Level], DataEntry[Unit Cost]) * 0.2 (assumed holding cost rate)
• Days of Inventory on Hand: =AVERAGE(DataEntry[Current Stock Level]) / AVERAGE(Daily Sales Rate)

Conditional Formatting for Visual KPI Tracking

To enhance the Analysis View, the template uses conditional formatting to provide immediate visual cues:

• Stock Levels: Red (0–5), Yellow (6–10), Green (>10) based on reorder thresholds.
• KPI Health Indicators: Traffic light system—red for below target, yellow for caution, green for meeting or exceeding targets.
• Trend Arrows: Up/down arrows in KPI summary cells to indicate performance improvement or decline over time.

User Instructions

2. Update the "Current Stock Level" and "On Order" fields after every delivery or dispatch.
3. The KPI Dashboard will auto-calculate based on formulas; no manual intervention required once data is entered.
