Key Formulas Required
- In column H (Total Cost):
=D2*G2– dynamically calculates cost per item. - In the Status Dashboard:
=COUNTIF(InventoryTracker!I:I,"Low Stock")– counts items needing attention. - Conditional formula for “Reorder Alert”: In column M:
=IF(D2<=F2,"REORDER NOW","OK") - Total Budget: Sum of all Total Cost values with
=SUM(H:H)on the Budget & Costs sheet. - Budget Utilization Rate:
=SUM(H:H)/Budget_Total * 100– shows % spent.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Low Stock (Column I): Cells turn yellow if Status = “Low Stock” or Quantity On Hand ≤ Reorder Point.
- Out of Stock: Red fill when Status = “Out of Stock.”
- Expired Assets: Orange border and italic font if Expiration Date is past today’s date.
- Budget Overrun: On Budget sheet, if Total Cost > Planned Budget, the cell turns red.
