Built an Excel-based Quality Control automation system with dependent logic (Item → Dimension → Price), reducing data entry time by 75% and saving 30+ hours monthly.
The Challenge
Manual quality control processes at Fusion Furnish were time-consuming and error-prone. Data entry for product information with complex dependencies (Item → Dimension → Price) was taking excessive time and leading to inconsistencies in pricing and inventory management.
Solution & Approach
- Dependent Logic System: Developed Excel VBA automation (.xlsm) with smart cascading logic - Item selection automatically populates valid Dimensions, which then determines appropriate Price ranges
- Data Integrity: Implemented password-protected sheets and locked VBA modules to secure sensitive pricing and inventory data from unauthorized modifications
- User Interface: Created intuitive forms and dropdowns with validation rules to prevent data entry errors and ensure consistency
- Performance Optimization: Optimized VBA code for speed, reducing per-row entry time by 75% through efficient algorithms and caching
- Error Handling: Built comprehensive error handling and logging system to track and resolve issues quickly
