Formulas Required

The template is built with dynamic formulas to ensure automatic calculations and real-time updates.

Total Value Calculation: =IF(Quantity in Stock="", 0, Quantity in Stock * Unit Cost)
Low-Stock Alert Indicator: =IF(Quantity in Stock <= Reorder Level, "Reorder Needed", "In Stock")
Last Updated Timestamp (Manual Entry): Use the formula: =NOW(), set to trigger only on manual updates or via VBA.
Department Total Value: Uses SUMIFS across Inventory List and Department Mapping to aggregate values by department.
Reorder Count (Per Item): Use COUNTIF in Reorder Tracker to count how many times an item has been reordered.
Aging Report: Calculate days since last purchase: =TODAY() - Last Purchase Date

Conditional Formatting Rules

Enhances readability and highlights critical data:

Low Stock Alerts: Highlight cells in the “Quantity in Stock” column red if less than or equal to “Reorder Level”.
Status Color Coding: In the Status Dashboard, use color scales for stock levels (green = high, yellow = medium, red = low).
Overdue Orders: In Reorder Tracker, highlight rows with “Expected Delivery Date” in the past and status ≠ “Received”.
Last Updated: Highlight rows where "Last Updated Date" is older than 30 days (warning for outdated entries).
