Cover image for 5 Excel formulas every inventory
5 Excel formulas every inventory planner must know You don't need a fancy WMS to manage inventory well. You need Excel and the right formulas. After years of managing inventory in FMCG operations, these are the 5 formulas I use constantly β€” and the ones I build into every custom Excel system I deliver for clients. 1. SUMIFS β€” your most powerful counting tool Instead of filtering manually, SUMIFS lets you sum quantities based on multiple conditions at once. =SUMIFS(quantity_column, SKU_column, "SKU001", warehouse_column, "WH-A") Use it for: total stock by SKU and location, total dispatched by date range, production output by shift. 2. IFERROR β€” stop broken formulas from crashing your sheet When a formula can't find a value it returns an error. IFERROR catches it and shows something cleaner. =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,data_range,2,0),"Not found") Use it for: wrapping any VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH so your sheet doesn't fill with #N/A errors. 3. INDEX/MATCH β€” better than VLOOKUP VLOOKUP breaks when you add columns. INDEX/MATCH never does. =INDEX(return_column,MATCH(lookup_value,lookup_column,0)) Use it for: pulling SAP data into your planning sheet, matching SKU codes to descriptions, linking sheets without breaking. 4. COUNTIFS β€” find gaps instantly COUNTIFS counts rows that meet multiple conditions. Use it to spot where data is missing or incomplete. =COUNTIFS(status_column,"Pending",date_column,"<"&TODAY()) Use it for: overdue orders, pending GRs, items with zero stock, SKUs not yet received. 5. TODAY() and date logic β€” automate your daily planning Stop manually updating dates. TODAY() always returns the current date β€” build your planning triggers around it. =IF(reorder_date<=TODAY(),"Order Now","OK") Use it for: reorder alerts, overdue shipment flags, days-since-last-receipt calculations. These 5 formulas are the foundation of every inventory Excel system I build. Master them and you can automate 80% of your daily planning without spending a rupee on software.
