I'm trying to calculate "Days in Inventory" for a list SKUs

I have the following database for SKU receipts:

QTY=quantity :)

Lets consider the SKUID "AA001" as an example,
If current QTY is 10, then Days in Inventory(DOI) is 116 [TODAY()-1/03/2011]
IF current QTY is 25, then DOI is 139 [TODAY()-12/11/2010]
IF current QTY is 36, then DOI is 595 [TODAY()-09/11/2009]

I have to lookup the current QTY in receipts database (bottomup) and find which date(Date_found) the current QTY was received on (assuming LIFO approach) and find the difference [today()-Date_found]

This is to be done for all the 100,000 SKUs we have

I tried MATCH() and Vlookup() but haven't had any success, experts please help on how to do this.....thanks!

Hope this explanation is clear
 
Sort by date Sort by votes
When the CurrQty is zero, Days In Inventory is really N/A.
How about this below the Loop command:

Code: 
    If PurchQty = 0 Then
        ID(i, Dte) = "no inventory"
    ElseIf Too_Old Then
        ID(i, Dte) = "IQty > PQty"
    Else
        ID(i, Dte) = Purch_Record(, Dte)
    End If
Next i

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
