Inventory Management Google Sheets

This Google Sheets template for inventory control and monitoring has 7 sheets:

1. Dashboard: Reports, charts and tables to monitor performance (inventory value, number of items to be reordered, monthly expenses and revenue trend etc.)
2. Inventory Register: This is the primary sheet for stock control. This is linked with other input sheets for automatic updates – item master, PO register and sales register
3. Item Master: Maintain a list of all items your company stocks and sells (name, description, cost and sales price)
4. PO Register: Update the item procurement information – order to delivery. This sheet is linked to the inventory register and changes are automatically reflected
5. Sales Register: Update sales order information from order to dispatch. The quantity dispatched gets adjusted in the inventory register to calculate stock and reorder command
6. Vendor List: Company and contact information of all suppliers and vendors
7. Vendor Master: a very important sheet – this tracks the combination of items and vendors. You get to monitor how many vendors per item and respective cost price, minimum order quantities and lead time
