Excel Template Description – Task Scheduling, Stock Control & Tracking View

This comprehensive Excel template combines Task Scheduling, Stock Control, and a dynamic Tracking View into a single, intelligent dashboard. Designed for inventory managers, operations supervisors, and logistics coordinators, this template enables real-time visibility into both operational tasks and stock levels across multiple locations or product lines. By integrating scheduling with stock tracking, users can ensure that tasks such as restocking, order fulfillment, and quality checks are aligned with actual inventory availability.

Sheet Names

Task Scheduling (Main): The central sheet managing all scheduled tasks related to stock replenishment, delivery logistics, audits, and maintenance.
Stock Inventory: Tracks current stock levels by product SKU, location, and supplier.
Reorder Alerts: Automatically flags products needing restocking based on thresholds and lead times.
Tracking View Summary: A dynamic pivot table and dashboard view that consolidates task progress, stock status, and overdue actions.
Task Log: Records all task assignments, start/end times, user names, statuses (e.g., Pending, In Progress, Completed), and notes.
Settings & Parameters: Contains configurable thresholds (e.g., reorder point), lead times, and time zone settings for global teams.

Table Structures & Data Models

The core data structure is relational, ensuring consistency between tasks and inventory. The Task Scheduling (Main) sheet links to the Stock Inventory sheet through product ID (SKU) and location codes. Each task has a reference to its associated SKU, allowing users to track whether tasks are directly tied to stock availability.

Formulas Required

Status Flags: In the Task Scheduling sheet, use a formula to highlight overdue tasks: =IF(AND(B2


    Reorder Alerts: In the Reorder Alerts sheet, use:  
        =IF(Stock[Current Stock] < Stock[Minimum Level], TRUE, FALSE) – triggers if stock falls below threshold.
    Dates: Auto-calculate task duration:  
        =C2 - B2 (End Date – Start Date).
    Prioritization Weighting: In the Tracking View Summary, use a formula to assign priority scores:  
        =IF(E2="High", 3, IF(E2="Medium", 2, 1)) to rank tasks by urgency.
    Total Stock Value (Optional): Use =F2 * H2 if a unit price column is added later.
    AUTO-ASSIGNMENT: Use VLOOKUP in Task Scheduling to pull supplier name from Inventory sheet:  
        =VLOOKUP(SKU, Stock!A:B, 2, FALSE)



Conditional Formatting Rules

    Overdue Tasks: Highlight cells in the Status column with red background if task end date is behind today.
    Low Stock: Apply yellow background to stock levels below minimum level.
    Prioritization Color-Coding: High = Red, Medium = Orange, Low = Green in the prioritization column.
    Status Indicators: Use conditional formatting to show green for “Completed”, yellow for “In Progress”, red for “Overdue”.
    Task Due Dates: Apply a gradient fill from light blue (next week) to red (overdue).
