Required Formulas
- In the Sales Forecast & Inventory Demand sheet:
=VLOOKUP(CampaignID, 'Campaign Timeline'!A:J, 6, FALSE) * 1.3— forecasts demand as 130% of target units (accounting for conversion lag). - In the Product Inventory sheet:
=IF(D2 <= E2, "CRITICAL", IF(D2 <= E2*1.5, "LOW", "OK"))— auto-classifies inventory status. - In the Budget Allocation sheet:
=SUMIFS('Campaign Timeline'!F:F, 'Campaign Timeline'!H:H, "*"&A2&"*")— sums budgets for all campaigns linked to a specific product SKU.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Product Inventory - Current Stock: Red fill if ≤ Reorder Level; yellow if between Reorder Level and 1.5x Reorder Level.
- Campaign Timeline - Status: Green for "Completed", red for "Cancelled", blue for "Active".
- Budget Allocation: Red border if allocated budget exceeds projected demand (e.g., Budget > Forecasted Units * Unit Cost).
User Instructions
For Team Use: This template is designed for real-time collaboration. Each team member should update only their assigned sections: marketing leads update the Campaign Timeline, inventory managers update Product Inventory, and finance updates Budget Allocation. Enable Excel’s "Shared Workbook" mode or use OneDrive/SharePoint co-authoring.
Before launching any campaign:
- Verify that “Current Stock” > “Target Units Sold” + 10% buffer in the Product Inventory sheet.
- Confirm “Lead Time (Days)” allows time for restock if inventory is low.
- Review the Dashboards sheet to ensure no product has a red alert (“CRITICAL”) during campaign dates.
Update all fields weekly. Use dropdowns strictly to prevent data entry errors. Do not delete rows—use "Clear Contents" instead.
