Table Structures and Column Definitions
Main Inventory Tracker (Sheet 1)
This is the core table storing current inventory levels across all locations. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-----------| | SKU ID | Text/Number | Unique product identifier | | Product Name | Text | Full name of item | | Category | Text (Dropdown) | e.g., Electronics, Apparel, Raw Materials | | Unit of Measure (UoM) | Text (Dropdown) | Units like PCS, KG, LTR | | Current Quantity on Hand (COH) | Number (Decimal) | Real-time stock count | | Safety Stock Level | Number (Integer) | Minimum recommended stock level | | Reorder Point (ROP) | Number (Auto-calculated via formula) | COH threshold triggering reorder | | Lead Time to Supplier (Days) | Number (Integer) | Average supplier delivery time | | Last Received Date | Date Format | Date of last shipment arrival | | Next Expected Arrival Date | Formula-based date calculation from lead time and order date | | Warehouse Location ID | Text/Number (Dropdown) | Linked to Warehouse Locations sheet | | Unit Cost (USD) | Currency Format ($0.00) | Current purchase cost per unit | | Total Inventory Value (USD) | Formula: COH * Unit Cost |Reorder & Forecasting Engine
This dynamic sheet auto-calculates recommended order quantities using the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model and demand forecasting. | Column | Data Type | Description | |--------|-----------|-----------| | SKU ID | Text/Number | Matches with Main Inventory Tracker | | Forecasted Demand (Next 30 Days) | Number (Decimal) | Based on historical trend analysis | | EOQ Calculation (Units) | Formula-based: SQRT((2 * Annual Demand * Order Cost)/Holding Cost per Unit) | | Current Stock Level (COH) | Linked from Main Inventory Tracker | | Recommended Order Quantity | MAX(0, EOQ - COH), with minimum order size constraint | | Priority Flag (High/Med/Low) | Conditional text: High if COH < ROP and forecast demand > 3x average |Formulas Required
The Extended template leverages complex Excel functions for automation:- Dynamic Reorder Point: =IF([@COH] <= [@Safety Stock Level], "Reorder", "OK")
- Next Arrival Date: =[@Last Received Date] + [@Lead Time to Supplier (Days)]
- Safety Stock Calculation: =AVERAGE([Demand Last 90 Days]) * STANDARD_DEVIATION([Demand Last 90 Days]) * 1.645
- Inventory Turnover Ratio: =Total Sales (Last Year) / Average Inventory Value
- Demand Forecast (Exponential Smoothing): =0.3*[Previous Forecast] + 0.7*[Actual Demand]
Conditional Formatting Rules
Visual cues enhance readability and urgency:- Stock Levels: Red background if COH < ROP; Yellow if COH < 1.5 × ROP; Green otherwise.
- Aging Inventory: Orange cells for items > 180 days in stock (indicates obsolescence risk).
- Delivery Performance: Color-coded status (Red = Late, Yellow = Delayed, Green = On Time) based on actual vs. expected delivery dates.
- Supplier Score: Traffic light system in Supplier Performance Tracker: Red (<75), Amber (75–90), Green (>90).
User Instructions
- Data Entry: Begin by populating the Detailed Product Catalog with all SKUs, suppliers, and product specs.
- Synchronize Data: Link the Main Inventory Tracker to Warehouse Locations using consistent ID formats.
- Run Forecasting: Update demand history monthly. The system will automatically adjust forecasts.
- Review Reorder Recommendations: Use the Reorder & Forecasting Engine sheet to generate purchase orders based on priority flags.
- Maintain Accuracy: Regularly audit physical inventory and update COH values to prevent stockouts or overstocking.
- Analyze Dashboard: Weekly review of the Logistics Planning Summary to identify bottlenecks, high-risk SKUs, and supplier issues.
