Tracking & reporting
Connect stock movements with quantities, value, and profit.
Use dated inventory transactions to review available stock, monthly results, and the details behind individual items.
Macro-based transaction entry
Enter the transaction on the input card and use the macro button to record it. Track inventory when it is purchased or added and when it is sold or used.
Inventory and SKU values by date
Select a date to review total inventory value and each product or SKU's net available units and net value.
Weighted-average cost accounting
Review the monthly cost of inventory items sold using the template's weighted-average costing approach.
Monthly revenue and gross profit
See revenue from inventory sold alongside monthly cost of goods sold and gross profit.
Individual item queries
Select an item and a date range to review its average cost, net count, and total value for the period being queried.
Inventory movement charts
Review inventory value and units over time, together with net monthly changes, to understand how stock levels are moving.
Start with the stock you already hold
Enter opening balances, then record items as they come and go.
If you already have inventory, enter the starting balance through the input card before recording subsequent activity. Continue entering purchases, additions, sales, and usage so the workbook has the data needed to calculate quantities and values.
The template uses manual transaction entry through its input card and macro. It is suited to businesses whose inventory movements can be kept current through this entry process.
