How to track raw material inventory in Excel
There are five sheets in the raw material inventory management excel template: 1) Home 2) Products 3) Raw Materials 4) BOM and 5) Orders
Overview of steps
- Enter Products in Products sheet
- Enter Raw Materials in Raw Materials sheet
- Enter Bill of Materials in BOM shet
- Enter orders in Orders sheet after checking availability
- View Current raw material stock in Raw Materials sheet
Steps in Detail
I will use an example of a Juice/Smoothie company which creates juices from fruits & vegetables. However, this template can be used in any industry.
Enter list of parts or products in the Products sheet as shown below

The Sales Quantity column is calculated based on sales orders that we will be entering soon.
Enter list of raw materials you use in your business in the Raw Materials sheet.

- Starting Inventory: In this sample data, we have 10 Apples and 10 Bananas in stock when we begin using the template.
- Re-Order Point: We have re-order points (Wikipedia Article on Re-Order Point) set for each raw material.
- Available Now: Displays the current stock level of each raw material.
- To Order: When current stock for a raw material goes below its re-order level, this field displays YES. Also, the template highlights the raw material name in red font.
Use this raw material stock register format in excel to handle all your raw materials availability.
Enter Bill of Materials (BOM) in BOM sheet

In the sample above, 1 unit of Banana Berry Shake is created from 1 Banana, 5 Strawberries and 10 Blueberries. 1 unit of Apple Banana Shake is created from 2 Apples and 2 Bananas. Unit of Measure column is just for your reference.
Once you have entered BOM for all your products, the initial set up is done.
Entering purchase and sale orders in Orders sheet.
As a manufacturing business, you may buy raw materials from your suppliers and sell the finished products to your customers. So, there are two key transactions – Purchase and Sale.
We can enter Purchase and Sale Orders in a single table in Orders sheet.

- Order Type: Order P1 is to purchase 50 Apples and 20 Bananas – So, we use Order Type of PURCHASE. Order S1 is an order to sell 5 Banana Berry Shakes. We use SALE order type.
- Order Date: Date when the order is placed.
- Expected Date: Date when the inventory is impacted. For example, order P1 was placed on 3rd Jan, but raw materials will reach us only on 4th Jan. So, Order date is 3rd Jan and Expected Date is 4th Jan.
- Product or Raw Material Name: The template allows drop down selection for product / raw material name. If the order type is Purchase, it will allow Raw Materials and if order type is Sale, it will allow Products.
- Quantity: Enter quantity or units of items on the order
If an order has 5 line items, then enter as 5 rows.
Check Availability
Before entering a new Sale order, if you would like to check the current capacity for a product, you can easily do that.

When you select a product, the template runs the calculations to figure out how many units of the product can be manufactured using the raw materials in stock right now. In the image above, we see that we can make 13 Apple Banana Shakes.
Limit
This free excel template for manufacturing company cannot handle complex scenarios where sub-assemblies of raw materials are raw materials to the final product.

The downloaded template file and the video appear to be different. For example, the video shows a dashboard called “SALES_REPORT,” but this dashboard is not available in the Excel file I downloaded. Could you please clarify this issue?
Thank you for reaching out!
The video demonstrates an older version of the template, while the downloaded file is the latest version. The latest version includes all the features from the previous Sales Report dashboard and more — just organized and presented differently.

Hi. I had downloaded this template a few months ago and it worked great! I spent a long time getting everything just right for what I’m working on then it just vanished. All my other files are still there and when I download the template again now, it won’t open in google sheets. Do you know if there was recent a google update that makes this template incompatible?
Nevermind, totally screwed that up. Excel… not sheets.. lol

hi i am starting a pvc solvents manufacturing unit. a number of products can be made from the same set of raw materials. i just downloaded your free management inventory spreadsheet for my understanding before making the purchase. it was simply superb. I have a few doubts.
1. i dont understand the colour codes in the product sheet. do they mean anything.
2. As i said, same raw materials are used in different products, but availability just shows for one product alone and rest as zero. (eg: pvc solvent 250 l & pvc solvent 500 ml are my products. but checking availability shows for 25oml alone and the other as zero)
3. I have entered sale of pvc 500ml but its not getting deducted in the raw material sheet.
kindly guide me pls
Thank you for showing interest in our template and sharing your valuable feedback.
1. Yes, the columns with green color contains formulas. Hence modifying or deleting it will have impact on sheet’s calculation.
Regarding 2 and 3, I am unable to replicate the highlighted issue in our end, please share your sheet to us at the below link to assist further:

Thank you for this free template.
I am struggling with the Purchases in the Raw Materials tab. When an order is placed for a Raw Material (Purchase) in the Orders tab then the Purchases column in the Raw Materials tab is not being updated. Similarly, when a sale is recorded in the Orders tab then it’s not updated in the Products tab under “Sales quantity as of today”
Please assist

Hello…thank you for sharing this template for free, specially useful for small and startup businesses. But 2 things pls:
1. I would like to establish value/amount of beginning and ending inventories of raw materials – can we add columns on the right without disrupting the formula of the template?
2. We tried using this template as a shared file in google sheet, how to correct parse errors in most of the data fields of the google sheet?
Thank you for your help/reply on this.
Thank you for showing interest in our template.
1. Yes, you can add columns to the end of the table without disturbing the sheet’s calculation.
2. We use advance Excel features that are not directly supported on Google Sheet and vice versa. Hence we have built a separate version for Google Sheet template and following is the link to the google sheet version of manufacturing inventory tracker template:

Hi,
Can 1 more feature be added to it wherein if I enter a sale order (for eg 50 banana milkshake) then the number of raw materials required to fulfill that sale order should be displayed (Available banana-25, Required banana – 25)?

I downloaded the template and input data. However I would like to upload this to google drive so I can access it on the move. When I put the file in drive, none of the formulas work.
Is there a way I can use this on google sheets / drive?
Thank you for showing interest in our template.
Currently, our excel templates are directly not supported in Google Sheet. Hence we have developed the Google Sheet template separately. You can Make a copy of the template to your google drive from the below link:

Just downloaded this workbook and trying to get to know it.
Why isn’t “Product” in the BOM sheet picked up from “Product” in the Products sheet? It seems that would make the most sense, connecting the two. Am I missing something here?
Thank you for showing interest in our template.
I have verified the template and the drop down is available to select product name from Product table in BOM tab. If you copy paste the cell into the product name which does not have the drop down instead of pasting as value, then the drop down will be removed.
If this is not your concern, requesting to share your sheet to support@indzara.com along with some screenshot highlighting your issue to check further.
Best wishes.
Hello, I am facing the same issue. The product in the BOM tab is not directly updating product name from the “PRODUCTS” tab. I hope there won’t be any issue in other values if I copy paste or manually write the product name in the BOM tab. Also, does your sheet work on Microsoft teams? Thanks
Thank you for showing interest in our template.
Currently, we have not made the products to auto-populate in BOM table since 1 product might require multiple raw materials to manufacture, in such scenario, the same product name has to be repeated again and again for each raw material to be mapped with the product along with its quantity.
I also would like to inform you that copy pasting the product name will not impact the sheet’s calculation, however I would recommend you to paste it as values to save the cells format.
Sorry, I have not tested with Microsoft Teams yet but if you are referring to Excel online, yes it works.

Can this template be adapted for use in a pharmaceutical manufacturing company?
Thank you for showing interest in our template.
Yes, this template can be used for any company with fixed quantity of required raw material. But if you are manufacturing a product from a manufactured sub-product instead of purchased raw material, currently, this feature is not available in the template and we have planned to include the same in the next version of the template.
We also take customization project for a fee. You can share your requirement to support@indzara.com for estimation.

I have been using the Manufacturing Inventory Tracking Spreadsheet and it works great. I ran into a problem when I created a new raw material gave it a starting quantity and then tried to insert it into an existing BOM. The spread sheet assigns a quantity to the raw material used for this item even though there is no history for this raw material. It also deducts the amount in the history used column from the available raw materials number leaving me with a negative available quantity. How can I correct this problem?
Than you for using our template and sharing your feedback.

You can insert a column. However, please note that it will not be part of any calculation.

Hello again,
how can I determine the QUANTITY I need to purchase if raw materials are shared across multiple products? Do this spreadsheet calculate what I need to order? If not, do you have one that does?
THANKS SO MUCH!
Hello
When you enter the raw material details, it asks for the Reorder point. This needs to be mentioned. In case the inventory falls below it, final products cannot be manufactured using the same.
Best wishes
But where does it calculate what I need to order? If I have multiple products using the same part# I need to add everything I need for all products.
THANK YOU!
Hello
Once a reorder level is advised you will be alerted when the inventory falls for that item below this level.You not be able to manufacture the items that use the raw material. Please review the video and the blog on the page.
Thanks
Hello, this looks like a great tool. How does it count/allocate for shared raw material parts?
Thank you!
Thanks for using our template.
Suppose a material A is shared in two products, in that case, the number of two products that can be manufactured using A will depend upon the quantity of material A available at that time.

I have raw materials that appear across different products. I have set up each product in the BoM sheet of the free template and also in the Manufacturing details sheet on the template I have purchased. However, when I look to see how many of this product can be made all is shows me is the quantity of the very first raw material for that product. I thought maybe it would look at all the raw materials required, versus the stock level and then tell me how many products could be made?
When I enter a sales order for a particular product, will it reduce the raw materials inventory by the right amount for all the raw materials in the BoM?
Many thanks
Thanks for using the templates.

Just want to tell you how awesome this spread sheet is. We are a small craft based provider of custom jewelry and needed a BOM and Inventory system. Your spread sheet is the perfect solution as we can now account for the components that go into each item and reduce the inventory levels with each sale. This has improved our costing abilities as well.

Is there any way to adjust the inventory levels aside from Purchases and Sales. If we need to adjust a quantity after counting the stock does the template offer an adjustment entry?
Thanks for using the template. Currently, that is the only way to adjust inventory levels. Please try entering a dummy sale order to reduce inventory.

Thank you

Hi,
Thanks so much for the template, it helps a lot. I only have one question:

Also, can I see a total list of raw materials that have been substracted from the inventory in accordance with the sales orders?

In sheet [RAW MATERIALS] there is no formula in D7-D9, but rather the values

D9 = 55
What would be the formula ? The Orders are not being updated at the Purchases column

Hi. Anyway to adjust so the inventory is deducted by date of order and NOT expected date?
Can you please clarify the business context for this change? Is it possible to enter the order date again in the Expected date column?
Or we need to adjust the formulas and replace Expected Date references with Order Date.

Hello
Thank you for giving away such a valuable tool for free. We are bootstrapping our startup company, so I cannot begin to tell you how much we appreciate you and ll the hard work you have put into this.
I have a query – on the raw materials sheet, the ‘purchases’ column seems to be missing the calculation. We’d really appreciate it if you could provide us with this calculation.
Many thanks
Hello
Thanks for using our template.
All the calculations are done at the back end. Please watch the video on https://indzara.com/2016/08/free-manufacturing-inventory-tracker/, this will give you an overview of the workings.

Hello
Yep, I watched the video thoroughly, and understand how the template is supposed to work.
Problem is, the excel formula for that particular column is actually missing from the spreadsheet, which is why it’s not calculating on the back end. Please can you take a quick look? You’ll see what I mean.
Cheers
Hello
The Raw Material purchased and entered in the “Orders” sheet will reflect in the Purchases column.
Best regards
I am seeing the same thing as MJ and Pete. In sheet [RAW MATERIALS] there is no formula in D7-D9, but rather the values
D7 = 20
D8 = 40
D9 = 55
I was able to get this to work with the following formula, but I warn that it is inelegant.
=SUMIFS(ORDERS!F:F,ORDERS!B:B,”PURCHASE”,ORDERS!E:E,[@[RAW MATERIAL NAME]])

Yes, you can use it. It may not be suitable for point of sale use, but you can use it to track inventory by end of each day.
Please let me know if there are any questions.

Is there a way that I can changes “SALE” to “BUILD” in the ORDERS Sheet? Thanks
We would have to then update formulas as well.
Best wishes.
Can I use this template to only enter purchase order I. e raw materials alone and not sales orders. Can I add a formula for reorder level of raw material
Also can I use this to enter consumption of raw materials by production dept…
Thanks
Only purchase orders can be entered. However, then the inventory will only keep growing. Sales orders will reduce inventory as products leave. In order to reduce inventory by consumption of raw materials, we have to enter a sales order.
Best wishes.
We r holding finished goods and not all production = sale. Hence can I enter consumption of raw materials by production dept to reduce inventory without entering sales order..
Thanks
Thanks. In the premium template https://indzara.com/product/manufacturing-inventory-sales-manager-excel-template/, there is an order type of Manufacturing which allows creating finished goods in inventory without selling.

Greetings, I think I’ll like this product if I can get it to work…nothing seems to happen when I try to enter a Purchase or Sale. I am assuming that a purchase will be reflected across the sheets? Thanks Thomas

Dear Sir,
Please tell me how add one more order type in this format?
You can add one more order type in the drop down by just adding the value in the Data Validation list. Then we have to implement what that new order type should do to inventory calculations.

I am a small manufacturing whereby I buy raw material and/or components and assemble them to form a finish product. I would like to add a certain amount of labor as well as overhead cost into the total cost when building the BOM and eventually become the cost of sale. Can that be done?

Hi,
impressive work.
I would like to buy your spreadsheet but first I have few questions:
Can it be customised and edited? For example more sheets being added?
I am currently looking for a way to import sales out of a POS in csv format for stock depletion and sale report. Do you have anything in line with my needs?
Thanks for your interest.
Yes, the templates can be edited. New sheets can be added as needed. However, if you need the new sheets to integrate with the existing sheets, you would have to add the necessary formulas.
I don’t have any other templates that are set up to import POS data. Please let me know if there are any questions.
Best wishes.
Is it possible to add a column that supplies at what date the inventory level will be depleted based on the customer orders.
Hi, do u have a example of inventory related to safety match inventory where it shows also the detailed raw materials computation either by grams or kilograms..example I need to produce 10 boxes.
I am sorry. I couldn’t follow your question. Please provide more explanation.

Hi,
We are a manufacturing firm and purchase raw materials from many suppliers and then use that raw material to manufacture a final product and then sell that final product to different dealers.
Is this template useful in keeping a track of
– the raw material purchased vendor wise
– inventory
– ready stock
– dealers to whom final product is sold
Please see Manufacturing Inventory & Sales Manager template https://indzara.com/product/manufacturing-inventory-sales-manager-excel-template/ for more reporting and tracking by Suppliers and customers. Please let me know if there are any questions. Thanks. Best wishes.
Hi Indzara team,
we have raw materials and different combination of raw materials as assembled raw materials and then combination of different assembled raw materials as finished products, for example
A1, A2, B1 are the raw materials and combination of A1, A2 is C1(assembled raw material)
then combination of C1 and B1 is called D1(finished part).
so now my problem is how can I check the availability of C1 and also D1(combined with C1(A1, A2) ,B1 raw materiasl) on the top of orders page.
I hope you understand my issue, if you dont understand please let me know, I will be waiting for your reply.
Thanks for the details.
The template supports only one level of manufacturing/assembly – Raw materials being converted to products. I am sorry that your scenario of two levels is not supported.
Best wishes.
Hi Indzara team,
Some times we purchase 10 raw materials and only 7 will be usefull and remaining 3 will be defective products so this three will go to trash, so in this case how can I track usefull and non usefull raw materials count through this template.
To reduce the inventory of raw materials (due to wastage), please enter a purchase order for the raw material and use negative quantity value (for example: -5). This will reduce the raw material inventory accordingly.
Thanks & Best wishes.
Hi Indzara team,
Can I add extra column of tables near orange tables(at starting of the tables)? does it effect the template?
Yes, you should be able to add columns to the tables. Please do not edit any formulas in calculated columns. Thanks. Best wishes.
i downloaded sheets but it is blank
The template is ready to enter your own data. The calculations are built-in and once you enter your input data, you will see the results. Thanks. Best wishes.
Dear Sir,
We are trying to find a Template to track in-house office “Supplies Purchased, Issued & When to Reorder”. I have been searching for something so that we can enter our “Purchases” (i.e. safety goggles, gloves, band saw blades, etc..) Our Industry is in Steel Fabrication and we have a lot of in-house office/safety & shop supplies that we are purchasing & issuing to our employees on a daily basis. As of right now we have no system in place to track how much of each item has been purchased vs. what we have on hand and what needs to be reordered as well as Who, What, & When was it issued? Any suggestions on what Template to purchase if any would work for this? Your help & working Template to resolve our issue would be GREATLY Appreciated! Thank You!
Thanks for your comment. I have replied to your email address with some questions. Thanks & Best wishes.
this is good Ind. quick question. can you also develop and inventory system for an automotive industry or booking a service and maintenance template for automotive industry.
Thanks. I am sorry I don’t have such a template yet. Please subscribe to our social media outlets to be notified of new templates. Thanks. Best wishes.
Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for the efforts that you have put in making these trackers available for us. Your templates and trackers are very useful for us in various areas of our operations.
We are a small company trying to use this tracker for tracking goods issued and receipt in our store room. We generally procure raw materials and stock it in store room. In this tracker, it is recorded as ‘Purchase’ when goods are received and while goods are issued to indenting department, we record it as ‘Issue’ in place of ‘sales’. It would be a great support if you could to kindly help us with ‘Purchase Return’ and ‘Goods Return’ options where the inventory adjustments happens automatically.
Will be awaiting for your valuable response at the earliest.
Many thanks in advance!
You are welcome. Please try entering negative values in Quantity field in ORDERS sheet. This should create the reverse inventory logic. A sale order with negative quantity should increase inventory = Goods return. A Purchase order with negative quantity should decrease inventory = Purchase return.
Please let me know if there are questions. Thank you.
Dear sir,
I am interested with the Manufacturing Inventory & sales manager template, could you give me trial version on this template for analyzing whether this template suitable with my need or not.
If suitable, I will buy for your template
Thank you

Thanks & Best wishes.
Thank u so much
I have a problem that when i go to column F and G there is no balance showing. in Column F i put formula of subtraction in it then the results come out
But in column G no results found.
You are very welcome. Please email the file to indzara at gmail and I will be glad to take a look at the data. Thanks.
Thanks so much for the template. I am entering raw materials and when I got to line 41 the red text ended. How can I extend that feature?
You are very welcome. The red font indicating raw materials below re-order points should automatically extend in the table. If it is not, please check the Conditional Formatting rule (Home Ribbon –> Conditional Formatting –> Manage Rules –> This Table. You can view/edit the cell range accordingly. Thanks.
