    Hi,

    I would recommend to check formula for beginning inventory and how you get beginning inventory for the first week of the calendar. Your current if statement the previous ending inventory during first year of the model and beginning inventory otherwise. In pseudosyntax your formula in Beginning Inventory should say

    IF First Week of Model? THEN Beginning Inventory Input ELSE PREVIOUS(Ending Inventory) .

    Hope this helps 😊 Let me know if any questions or doubts.
