Multi-Warehouse Stock Management Command Center
Built for a national office automation group operating across Cape Town, Durban & Johannesburg warehouses.
The Problem: No single view of stock.
Team was managing stock levels across 3 warehouses in Excel. No visibility on what’s on hand vs. on order vs. issued. Overstocking in one warehouse, stockouts in another. No value tracking.
What I Built:Live Power BI Command Center connected directly to SQL Server ERP data.
Top KPIs:24 509 Stock On Hand , 1 548 Parts On Order, 4 561 Parts Issued, 4 Core Modules:
Stock Qty On Hand — breakdown by PartType (Con, HW, Spare, Ton) x WarehouseStock Value On Hand — R35M+ total value tracked live (R13.5M CPT, R9.7M DBN, R11.7M JHB)
Parts Issued — consumption tracking by warehouse to spot trends/anomalies
Parts On Order — pipeline visibility to prevent stockouts
Trend Analysis — Sum of Parts Issued by PartType, Year & Month — 18 months trending
Features:Dynamic date range & slicers (PartType, Warehouse)SQL views with business logic — deduplication, status mapping. Handles large datasets (20K+ SKUs, 3 warehouses, multi-year history)Built for business users + ops team — investigative, not just reporting
Tech Stack: Advanced SQL (CTEs, Joins, Window Functions), SQL Server, Power BI, ERP Integration
Result: Ops team now sees in 10 seconds what took 2 hours in Excel. Prevented stockouts, reduced duplicate orders, gave finance live R35M stock value.
