Sheet Names

• Stock Inventory: Main tracking sheet for all items, including quantity, expiration dates, and last restocked date.
• Restock Schedule: Automatically generates recommendations based on usage trends and low-stock triggers.
• Usage & Consumption Log: Tracks when and how often each item is used to inform future restocking decisions.
• Reports & Analytics: Contains summary dashboards, visual charts, and statistical summaries for personal insight.
• Settings & Filters: Allows users to customize categories, units of measure, and alert thresholds.

Table Structures & Columns

The core data structure in the "Stock Inventory" sheet is a relational table with the following columns:

Data Types & Formulas Required

All data fields are strictly typed for accuracy:

• Item ID: Auto-generated using a sequential formula (e.g., =CONCATENATE("INV-", TEXT(ROW()-1, "000")))
• Current Quantity: Numeric (integers), updated manually or via usage log.
• Reorder Level: Numeric; triggers alerts when stock drops below this level.
• Status: Text-based dynamic field determined by formula: =IF(C2<D2,"Low","In Stock") (where C2 = current quantity, D2 = reorder level)
• Usage Value: Calculated as =E2*F2, where E is price and F is consumption rate.
• Total Items in Stock: SUM of "Current Quantity" column (using SUM(C:C)).
• Low Stock Alerts: IF condition to flag items below reorder level.
• Expiry Warning Flags: IF(Now() > Expiry Date, "Expired", "") with date comparison logic.

Conditional Formatting Rules

• Low Stock Highlighting: Applies yellow background to rows where current quantity is below reorder level.
• Expiry Warnings: Red fill and bold text for items with expiry dates before 30 days.
• Status Indicators: Green for "In Stock", Orange for "Low", Red for "Out of Stock".
• Sales/Usage Column: Conditional formatting to highlight values over $100 in green (for high-value consumption).
