First of all, you have the chance to calculate your planned orders and create, edit and release your purchase orders according to your needs. Here is what you can do with this Supply & Inventory Planning Template:

This section works as a simple Master Data Module setting up an automatic code when you save a new product. Again, do not duplicate codes when loading your products from another system.

To emphasize, the 1st. the month of Sales Forecast horizon is dynamic. Before selecting the date you would like to set, click “EDIT MASTERDATA & FORECAST” to be able to choose from the drop-down list.

Min. Order Quantity (M.O.Q.): this is the minimum order quantity suppliers will ship to attend to your purchase orders. This template calculates all requirements as multiple batch quantities according to M.O.Q.

Unit Cost and Sales Price: This is required for calculating Expected Gross Margin by SKUs in Dashboard & Report Section.

ABC Classification determines how the template will calculate the safety stock for each SKU.

  1. For “A” products, safety stock will set on 1-month coverage.
  2. For “B” products, safety stock will set on 2-months coverage.
  3. Finally, for “C” products, safety stock will set on 3-months coverage.

Sales Forecast: determines the expected sales for each SKU on a monthly basis.

8 reviews for Supply Planning Excel Template

  1. Steph

    is it possible if I can directly copy-paste the list of suppliers and Sku’s in the master data rather than creating one by one?

    • Someka

      Hi Steph,

      If you have already a data set for your suppliers or products you may Copy and Paste as Value your data and then Load them by using editing buttons. You do not have to input your products one by one.

  4. Marita M

    very useful for our planning. but want see row number and adding new sheet

  5. Osborn Moore

    Hello, the “add new supplier&product etc ” part is very creative.
    It is motivating to add information such as filling out the form, instead of filling out the cell in Excel.

  6. Mike Schrob 

    Hi. I am interested in your Inventory and Planning worksheet to help me manage my purchase plans.
    I currently manage about 50 different products from 5 suppliers. I maintain purchase orders for each product that extend 7 months.
    On the Planning screen is it possible to view the open PO’s to be received each month?

    • Someka

      Hi Mike,

      Thanks a lot for your interest!

      Our Supply and Inventory Planning template consists of 6 sections. There is a separate section which name is “Purchase Orders” to create a new PO and see what you have created before. That’s why there is not information about PO in the “Planning” sheet. You should track all of the PO from the section we have mentioned in case you needed.

      You can also apply our customization process if you want to add PO information and details on the planning sheet.

      For further questions please do not hesitate to ask!
