Sheet 3: Strategic KPI Dashboard (Template Version)
This summary sheet provides real-time strategic insights into warehouse performance. It dynamically pulls data from other sheets using Excel formulas and is designed to support monthly strategy review meetings.
Formulas Required
- Inventory Turnover Ratio:
=SUMIF(StockMovementTracker!C:C, "Shipment", StockMovementTracker!E:E) / AVERAGE(InventoryMasterList!D:D) - Stockout Rate:
=COUNTIF(InventoryMasterList!D:D, 0) / COUNTA(InventoryMasterList!D:D) - Total Inventory Value:
=SUMPRODUCT(InventoryMasterList!D:D, InventoryMasterList!H:H) - Reorder Alerts: Use an IF statement in a new column:
=IF(InventoryMasterList!D2 <= InventoryMasterList!E2, "REORDER", "") - Lead Time Coverage: Calculate how many days current stock will last using:
=InventoryMasterList!D2 / AVERAGEIFS(StockMovementTracker!E:E, StockMovementTracker!C:C, InventoryMasterList!A2)
Conditional Formatting
To enhance visibility and highlight strategic risks:
- Stock Below Reorder Point: Format cells in "Current Stock Level" column with red fill if value ≤ Reorder Point.
- Critical Items (High Value, Low Stock): Apply yellow highlight to items where Cost > $100 AND Current Stock ≤ 10 units.
- Overdue Transactions: Highlight any "Status" as "Pending" if transaction date exceeds today by more than 5 days.
- KPIs on Dashboard: Use traffic light indicators (red/yellow/green) based on threshold values for turnover, stockout rate, and value.
User Instructions
- Begin by populating the Inventory Master List with all products. Ensure Item ID is unique and categories are consistent.
- Add daily stock movements in the Stock Movement Tracker. Use consistent naming for sources/destinations.
- The system auto-calculates current stock levels using SUMIF formulas based on receipt and shipment entries.
- Review the Replenishment Planning sheet monthly to identify items requiring reorder. The template suggests order quantities based on average daily usage and lead time.
- Use the KPI Dashboard for executive reporting: share with leadership during quarterly strategy sessions.
- To update data, refresh all formulas (Ctrl+Alt+F9) after bulk edits.
