Formulas & Automation

This template uses a combination of Excel functions to ensure accuracy and reduce manual errors:

• Dynamic Stock Count: Uses SUMIFS() to pull all incoming and outgoing entries from the "Stock Movement Log" sheet, updating "Current Quantity in Stock" automatically.
• Total Value Calculation: Formula: =IF([@Quantity]>0, [@UnitCost]*[@Quantity], 0)
• Status Logic: =IF([@Quantity] <= [@ReorderLevel], "Low Stock", IF([@Quantity] = 0, "Out of Stock", "In Stock"))
• Auto-populated Reorder Date: Uses TODAY() function with conditional logic when an item is reordered.

Conditional Formatting

To enhance readability and operational efficiency, the template includes advanced conditional formatting rules:

• Low Stock Items: Highlighted in yellow with red text for immediate visibility.
• Out of Stock: Background color changed to bright red to signal urgent action needed.
• Status Column: Color-coded: green (In Stock), yellow (Low Stock), red (Out of Stock).
• Last Reorder Date: Applies a "Date" conditional format for entries older than 30 days, signaling potential stock shortages.
