Recommended Reorder Point Report

Recommended Reorder Point Report displays the current reorder point and safety stock and recommends new reorder points and safety stocks by computing the historical daily usage and lead time in days of the product. Reorder Point is used to know when to reorder a product. This is to ensure that the amount of stock that a product has would not go lower than the safety stock. On the other hand, Safety Stock is the minimum amount of stock that the product should always have in order to avoid stock-outs.

Recommended Reorder Point Report Overview

Report Filters

  • Date From – This filter will make it so that all transactions used for the report would only start from the date selected.
  • Date To – This filter will make it so that all transactions used for the report would only be up to the date selected.
  • Brand – This filter will show all products of the brand selected.
  • Category – This filter will show all products of the category selected.
  • Product Variant– This filter will show all product variants selected.
  • Include Products with no transactions within the period – This filter will make it so that products with no transactions within the period would still be displayed.
