Google表格中的库存数据库

Question

I have our company inventory stored in a google sheet.
A very basic setup with headers such as part# and quantity.
As of right now, we use AppSheets. When someone takes an item it records the part# and quantity in a feed on a seperate google sheet.

Is it possible with google sheets for the feed to automatically make the changes to the inventory database?
So the program would reference the part# on the feed and make changes to that part# on the database sheet.
Or is that way above the capability of sheets and I should be looking into SQL for that functionality?

Any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

If you don't want to control stock without scripts then you could connect your inventory sheet to your sales sheet using sumif .

Simply summing all the sales and subtracting from the current stock level would not work correctly so you could record the date or date & time when your stock is counted for each part and then only count and subtract the sales after that date.

The sumif is summing if the part number in column A on the Sales sheet matches the inventory part and the sales date in column C on the Sales sheet is greater than or equal to the stock take date.

I added some conditional formatting to highlight a low stock level.
