Good Morning: New User here - Longtime fan of the Excel forum:
In my sample attachment: the following data:
Column B: Inventory Item #
Column H: Quantities (On Hand / On Order / Required by Customer)
Column J: Customer required Delivery Date
Column K: (Existing formula to determine running Cumulative Total Quantity per Inventory Item #)
Column L: Inventory Classifications (A = On Hand, B = On Order, C = Individual Customer Order Requirements/Allocations)
Column M: ** This is where I'd like to enter a formula to determine (for each Item #) - the date on which there will be insufficient inventory to fill the Customer's Order
Methodology:
"A" Inventory Classification is noted as a positive number (Quantity on Hand)
"B" Inventory Classification is noted as a positive number (Quantity on Order)
"C" Inventory Classification could be noted as either a positive, or negative number (Quantity required to fill Orders by Customer)
(if the Quantity associated with "C" Classifications is negative - it suggests a Customer demand for the Item #)
(if the Quantity associated with "C" Classifications is positive - it suggests Inventory was over-issued, and will return to inventory upon job completion)
Attachment (Excel sample.jpg):
Displays three (3) possibilities (Item #'s 0324, 0665 and K1466)
Example 0324:
Cumulative Quantity on Hand + Quantity on Order - Customer Requirement Quantities "runs out" (goes negative) on the date of 03/20/2019: This is the date to return in the formula.
Example 0665 (tricky one):
Cumulative Quantity on Hand + Quantity on Order - Customer Requirement Quantities "runs out" (goes negative) on the date of 12/17/2018: however, there is inventory returned (145.83) on 12/27/2018, which is enough to satisfy the order for 01/18/2019. Then, the requirement of <58.500> on the Order for 02/28/2019 "runs out" the available inventory. This is the date to return in the formula. 02/28/2019 In other words, The run out date needed for Column "M" is the last time the cumulative inventory runs into the negative.
Example K1466:
Cumulative Quantity on Hand + Quantity on Order - Customer Requirement Quantities never "runs out" (goes negative). A "text" return of "OK" would be sufficient, as there is no current run-out date.
I'd like to find a formula solution which would return one specific run-out date (or the text "OK" for each change in Item # (Column "B")
Thank you for the opportunity to share this. Dave
