Key formulas include: - **Automatic Current Stock Update:** `=INDEX('Inventory Master List'!E:E, MATCH(A2, 'Inventory Master List'!A:A, 0)) + SUMIF('Stock Transactions Log'!C:C, A2, 'Stock Transactions Log'!E:E)` (Used in the Inventory Master List to auto-calculate real-time stock levels.) - **Reorder Alert Logic:** `=IF([@Current Stock Level] <= [@Reorder Point], "REORDER NEEDED", "IN STOCK")` (Applied via conditional formatting and data validation.) - **Last Reorder Date Update:** `=IF(AND([@Type]="Receipt", ISBLANK([@Last Reorder Date])), TODAY(), [@Last Reorder Date])` (Updates when a new receipt is logged.)Conditional Formatting
- **Red Highlight:** Items where current stock ≤ reorder point. - **Yellow Highlight:** Items between 80% and 100% of reorder point. - **Green Highlight:** Stock at or above maximum level (to flag overstocking). - **Bold & Blue Font:** High-value items (e.g., priced > $50).Instructions for the User
