=SUMIFS(StockMovementLog[Quantity], StockMovementLog[SKU Involved], ProductMaster[SKU], StockMovementLog[Movement Type], "Inbound") - SUMIFS(StockMovementLog[Quantity], StockMovementLog[SKU Involved], ProductMaster[SKU], StockMovementLog[Movement Type], "Outbound")
- Stock Below Threshold Indicator:
=IF([@Current Stock on Hand] <= [@Safety Stock Level], "Yes", "No")
- Pending Campaigns Count (Dashboard):
=COUNTIFS(MarketingCampaignTracker[Status], "Planning", MarketingCampaignTracker[Start Date], ">="&TODAY())
- Total Budget Spent This Month:
=SUMIFS(MarketingCampaignTracker[Budget Allocated], MarketingCampaignTracker[Start Date], ">="&DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), MONTH(TODAY()), 1), MarketingCampaignTracker[Start Date], "<="&EOMONTH(TODAY(), 0))
- Projected Stock Requirement:
=SUMIFS(StockMovementLog[Quantity], StockMovementLog[Movement Type], "Outbound", StockMovementLog[Date of Movement], ">="&TODAY(), StockMovementLog[Date of Movement], "<="&TODAY()+30)
