Questions about this sheet
How is the result calculated?
Remaining quantity equals received amount less used amount. Days to expiry equals entered expiry date less the review date in B7, and a missing expiry date stays blank.
What assumptions should I check?
Quantities in each row share the stated unit. This does not determine shelf life, storage compatibility, hazard classification, or disposal requirements; use the supplier documentation.
Can I add more than 60 records?
Yes. Copy the formula columns into new rows and extend every summary range to include them. Keep inputs and formulas in their original columns.
Are the example records real?
No. All example data is fictional and intended to demonstrate the formulas. Replace it before using the workbook for your own work.
