Formulas Required
The template leverages advanced Excel functions to automate operations monitoring:
- Status Logic (Status Column):
=IF([@CurrentStockLevel] >= [@ReorderPoint], "In Stock", IF([@CurrentStockLevel] <= 0, "Critical", "Low Stock")) - Days Since Last Delivery:
=TODAY() - [@[Last Delivery Date]](Used in dashboard for freshness tracking) - Reorder Suggestion:
=IF([@Status]="Low Stock", "Order Recommended", IF([@Status]="Critical", "URGENT: Reorder Now", ""))
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance visual clarity and rapid issue detection:
- Status Column: Red background for "Critical", yellow for "Low Stock", green for "In Stock".
- Current Stock Level vs Reorder Point: Highlight rows where stock ≤ reorder point using a custom formula.
- Last Delivery Date: Use date gradients (e.g., green → red) based on days since delivery. Items older than 60 days highlighted in red.
