Hi jhil


I do not have one set up but you could create a simple one with the following formula that will help to track numbers of items, not value

Head up row 1 as follows

1A Stock detail
1B Stock code
1C Opening stock
1D Purchases
1E Sales
1F Closing stock

I would suggest that you then reformat the cells from row 2 downwards to general numbers that match your units

Then in
2F enter the formula =C2+D2-E2
and paste this formula down enough rows to cover number of stock items

then start entering your stock

2A enter your stock name (no formula)
2B enter the stock code (no formula)
2C enter the number of items held at opening stock
2D enter number of items purchased
2E enter the number of items sold
2D will automatically calculate the result.

and so on down the rows.

jhill, I see from other threads that you are using Sage. If you have sage line 50 you could elect to use the stock control option there and that will enable you to keep stock values as well, thus saving duplication of work.
