An inventory is essentially a list of all the items that you store until they are resold. At the heart of this process, you need some kind of system for tracking each item that enters or leaves your company. This is where an inventory management template can help.<\/p>\n<p>Good inventory management is a balancing act: you need to avoid shortages and make sure your customers receive their orders on time. On the other hand, sitting on a large quantity of unsold stock can also be detrimental to your business. As well as being bad for cash flow, items risk becoming damaged, spoiled, stolen, going out of date or out of fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping tabs on which items are selling and recognizing when stocks are running low prevents supply chain disruption. The results of that are happy customers and a healthy bank balance.<\/p>\n<p>Today there\u2019s a huge range of inventory management software on the market. Large companies tend to use specialist software or an ERP, but for SMEs, this is a costly (and unnecessary) investment. Inventory software can be difficult to use and doesn\u2019t always provide the flexibility that a business owner or operations manager needs. It also tends to have more features than you would ever need in a small business or organization.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, you can create a reliable, user-friendly inventory management system with the tool you already know and use every single day: spreadsheets.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;3_5,2_5&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#F6F8F9&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;30px|30px|30px|30px|true|true&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|12px|12px|12px|12px&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin:auto&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;17px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;17px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_4_font_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_4_font_phone=&#8221;&#8221; header_4_font_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; text_orientation_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; text_orientation_phone=&#8221;center&#8221; text_orientation_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>Sign up for Sheetgo and start tracking your <span style=\"background-color: rgba(41,121,255,0.2);\"><span>inventory<\/span><\/span> automatically<\/h4>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin:auto&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/app.sheetgo.com\/templates\/inventory&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;INSTALL FREE TEMPLATE&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#2979ff&#8221; button_border_width=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_border_radius=&#8221;6px&#8221; button_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; button_use_icon=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;10px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;10px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;15px|16px|15px|16px|true|true&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; button_bg_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|hover&#8221; button_bg_color__hover=&#8221;rgba(41,121,255,0.7)&#8221; button_bg_enable_color__hover=&#8221;on&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Why choose Google Sheets for inventory management?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Flexible: Google Sheets enables you to create a tailor-made inventory control system that you can change and adapt yourself, without any specialist software.<\/li>\n<li>Accessible: As it\u2019s cloud-based, Google Sheets can be accessed by any member of the team at any time, as long as they have an internet connection.<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with everything: All other software packages integrate with Google Sheets so you can easily merge data from multiple departments or processes, such as sales, order, or e-commerce software.<\/li>\n<li>Easy to use: There\u2019s no need to train your team as they will already be familiar with spreadsheets.

At Sheetgo, we love creating solutions that allow our users to make the most out of their spreadsheets. Easily, and at no cost.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">We have created a template for an inventory management system that allows you to check-in, check-out, and track current inventory.&nbsp;It includes three Google Sheets spreadsheets that are connected using Sheetgo, as shown in the diagram below. <\/span>\n\nYou will need to follow the instructions carefully to set up your system. But, once configured you will have a complete accounting of your current inventory in a master spreadsheet. You will be able to check-in and check-out items in the appropriate sheet which will automatically update the master.\n<h2>The Template<\/h2>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">This template includes two Google Sheets, one of which is tracks the current inventory and the other of which is used for purchase orders. The purchase order sheet can be replicated multiple times if necessary (e.g., one sheet per sales rep, per client, or per region). We'll configure the&nbsp;Inventory sheet to import purchase orders daily and decrement the number of items in stock. The updated stock will then be imported to the purchase order sheets to identify which items have been sold out.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">We've structured the template so that tabs with inputs are Yellow and fields with inputs are white. If you are an intermediate to advanced user of spreadsheets feel free to modify the template to meet your needs. Follow the steps below&nbsp;to configure your Inventory Management Template.<\/span>\n<h2>Let's Get Started<\/h2>\n<h4>Step 1. Install the Template<\/h4>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sheetgo is an add-on for Google Sheets that allows you to connect spreadsheets so they can \"talk to each other\". You will need to have Sheetgo enabled on your Google Sheets account to use this template.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are already a Sheetgo user, you can skip this step. If you are new to Sheetgo,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;click on the button below to open our web app, create a free account with one click, and get Sheetgo connected to your Google Sheets account.<\/span>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/app.sheetgo.com\/templates\/inventory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2173 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/white-and-green_sheetgo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\"><\/a><\/p>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. The available templates will appear in the toolbar. Click the<\/span><b> Install<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> button on the <\/span><b>Inventory<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> template.<\/span>\n\n2. You will be asked to<strong> authorize<\/strong> Sheetgo to access your Google account.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sheetgo will automatically create five new sheets in your spreadsheet. Look on the bottom left of your spreadsheet, you will see the five new tabs titled:<\/span>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Instructions: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">provides you with a step-by-step guide to configure your Inventory Management Template.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Item Registration Item Registration is where you will register all items that you can check-in or check-out of your stock.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Check-in:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> linked to external spreadsheets that you will configure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Check-out: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">linked to external spreadsheets that you will configure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Current Inventory:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> combines the Check-in and Check-out sheets to summarize your stock.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<b>This system is designed to automatically update once a day, but you can change the frequency by changing the settings for the Sheetgo connections.<\/b>\n<h3>2. Configure&nbsp;the Inventory Management Template<\/h3>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Follow the instructions in the 'Instructions' tab of the 3 sheets to configure your inventory management system. We have included some dummy data which you should overwrite with your own data. It is imp<\/span>ortant that you follow the steps and configure the spreadsheets sequ<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">entially:<\/span>\n<ol>\n \t<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Fill out the <strong>Item Registration<\/strong>&nbsp;tab of <strong>Inventory <\/strong><strong>Master<\/strong> and export it to <strong>Check-in<\/strong> and <strong>Check-out&nbsp;<\/strong>using Sheetgo as described in the instructions.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Fill out the <strong>Check-in<\/strong> sheet with your current inventory and import it to <strong>Inventory Master&nbsp;<\/strong>using sheetgo<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Export the <strong>Current Inventory<\/strong> to the <strong>Check-out<\/strong> sheet using Sheetgo<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">By following the&nbsp;steps laid out in the instructions tab sequentially you will now have your current inventory in the Check-out sheet. You can now check-in or check-out material at any time and it will automatically update your current inventory.<\/span>\n<h2>You Are All Set<\/h2>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">You've now set up your Inventory Management Template which will be automatically updated each time you fill out the check-in or check-out sheets. Now your inventory is&nbsp;always synchronized. If you require more frequent updates feel free to swap daily for hourly updates when configuring your Imports and reach out to support@sheetgo.com if you need help with anything.<\/span>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[58],"class_list":["post-2150","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inventory-templates","tag-inventory"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/50"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2150"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2150\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2150"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sheetgo.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
