Reorder Report

The reorder report provides a simple analysis of what to reorder based on user-set minimum, reorder, and maximum inventory levels. The report shows all products in stock that have fallen below either the preset reorder or minimum quantities. It then calculates how much should be ordered to bring the stock up to the set max value, and the approximate cost based on the current price. This report is recommended for depots that are using preset inventory levels and that can replenish stock quickly without too much advanced planning.

How to Run the Report

You can find the on order report in the menu under reporting> order reports.

This will bring you to a page where you can select options for the report.

  • Additional inventory locations: Use this dropdown to select any additional locations that you would like to count in your total quantity available, The quantity available in the report will be summed across your location and any additional locations chosen.
  • Expired stock: Use this dropdown to select whether you want expired and expiring stock to be subtracted from the quantity available in the report. The default is that expired stock will be subtracted, but that can be changed to include expired stock, or to subtract any stock expiring within a given number of days
  • Show products filter: This filter dictates which products are shown in the report. The default options is to show all products, even if they do not need to be reordered.

  • Category: This dropdown allows the user to show only products in a particular category
  • Tag: This filter allows the user to only show products with a particular tag
