Why placing your Purchase Orders at the right time is important?

The more your business grows the more difficult it is to maintain ideal stock levels across your products. Setting a reorder point for your most important SKUs helps you determine when to replenish your stock, so that you have neither too much nor too little of any given item. A carefully calculated reorder point is therefore critical to good stock control, and keeps your key metrics looking healthy for your next inventory report.

Minimise costs

Storing more inventory than what can be sold in a timely fashion is not a productive use of capital. This course will equip you will a tool, which will provide your businesses greater financial flexibility by allowing them to keep the ideal amount of inventory on hand.

Minimise out of stocks

Too much inventory is expensive, but too little inventory can result in stockouts, which are damaging to your business: orders are delayed or cancelled, the service levels drop, which can result in the loss of customers. The Procurement Calculation in Excel tool will help prevent stockouts before it’s too late with inventory replenishment.

Maintaining proper inventory levels is an elegant dance that must balance consumer demand and supplier reliability. Storing too much inventory diminishes your budget in terms of warehousing costs and available capital, however you need the right amount of inventory to account for unexpected demand or supply problems.
