Inventory Level Graph

Only for illustrative purposes

The examples shown in this page are for illustrative purposes only. There is lots of room for improvement to the UI/UX that these examples show. When partnering with Inventory Optimization and Resolve, we work closely together to make sure the solution fits the partner's software, requirements, and user preferences. The end result will look different from the examples shown here.

The inventory level graph shows the historical inventory level and the forecasted inventory level for the planning period.

To create the inventory level graph, you need the following:

  1. The historical inventory level for the product.
  2. The forecasted demand for the product.
  3. The expected incoming inventory orders and future sales orders for the product.
  4. The current inventory level for the product.

To create the expected inventory line, start with the current inventory level and subtract the forecasted demand for each time step in the planning period. For each incoming inventory order, add the quantity to the expected inventory level. For each sales order, subtract the quantity from the expected inventory level.

To get the upper and lower bounds for the expected inventory level, you essentially do the same, but make sure to use the upperQuantity and lowerQuantity from the forecast object instead of the predictedQuantity. Using the upperQuantity will give you the lower bound for the inventory level, and using the lowerQuantity will give you the upper bound for the inventory level.
