Excel
Looking at open sales orders:
If I have a column that is labeled inventory part number "A" (Example: But can range from row 1 to 30 or 1-5000)
If I have a column that is labeled quanitity per purchase order "B" (Example: But can range from row 1 to 30 or 1-5000)
If I have a column that is labeled requested date "C" (Example: But can range from row 1 to 30 or 1-5000)
Then I have a cell of inventory levels "D" and "E" (One cell for each level)
(An assembly and Subassembly)
Can I have Excel look at the Part number "A", Talley up the QTY "B", and then subtract "-" stock inventory levels "D+E", while looking at the requested date and have Excel tell me by 8/16/2022 You will be "X-amount" short for that order?

I'm going to say "Yes" to your question. Yes, Excel could do that.
But I suspect that answer would not be altogether satisfying.
The truth is there probably are several ways to do what you're asking. Rather than take a stab in the relative darkness, it would help if, in addition to your verbal description, you could post an actual copy of your spreadsheet (or a mockup of it), so that I or somebody could work with the real thing. If you can't post it here, use OneDrive or GoogleDrive and post a link here.

This list contains multiple part numbers
The list usually will not range past 5000 Rows
This is the formula I was able to come up with to at least Talley the QTY and subtract out 00+73
=SUM(D3+E3)-SUMIF('Open Sales 010120.xlsx'!$A$2:$A$1045,"10011",'Open Sales 010120.xlsx'!$B$2:$B$1045)

I understand if you do not want to look at this, I do apologize the file keeps failing the upload. Thank you for even considering helping!- mathetesSilver Contributor

Please use OneDrive or GoogleDrive and post a link to the file. That you can do, I'm assuming.
