This article explains how the recommended order quantities on the Stock Control reorder report are calculated.
More Information
Recommended Order Quantity
When you use the "Reorder Report" from the "Reordering" option in the stock control no user configurable quantities are used. Platinum uses a simple reorder formula which is :-
- If the maximum quantity is zero the recommended reorder quantity will be the quantity required to bring the stock level to the reorder level.
- If the maximum quantity is not zero the recommended reorder quantity will be the quantity required to bring the stock level to the maximum stocking level.
Packing Quantities
That recommended order will then be subjected to any packing quantities for that stock from the supplier you specified on the range screen.
 | If the recommended reorder quantity was 26 and the supplier only supplies this stock line in packs of 10 the final recommended reorder quantity would be 30. |
