What does this template do?

Calculate total pallet positions, remaining open capacity, and storage utilization across warehouse aisles or zones.

Total capacity multiplies bin count by pallet positions per bin. Available pallets subtracts occupied and quarantine pallets from total capacity, and utilization divides used positions by total capacity.

Assumes uniform pallet sizes within each row. Weight limits, honeycombing loss, and aisle staging constraints are not deducted automatically.

The working tab keeps editable inputs separate from formulas, with 6 populated sample rows, summary KPIs, an in-cell scale bar, and room for 60 records. The Notes tab explains the method and how to extend the range. All example records are fictional and can be replaced. Download a workbook format to retain formulas, or CSV when you need calculated values only.

Questions about this sheet

How is the result calculated?

What assumptions should I check?

Assumes uniform pallet sizes within each row. Weight limits, honeycombing loss, and aisle staging constraints are not deducted automatically.

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.
