Reorder Point Dashboard

What Is a Reorder Point?

The reorder point (ROP) is the on-hand quantity that triggers a replenishment order. It's calculated as expected demand during lead time plus safety stock. When actual inventory drops to the ROP, you place an order — ideally sized to the economic order quantity (EOQ) — so the new stock arrives just before you run out. Managing inventory by reorder point is the foundation of most replenishment strategies, from simple two-bin kanban to enterprise MRP systems.

Why a Dashboard View?

The EOQ Calculator and Safety Stock Calculator compute these values one SKU at a time — useful for analysis. In production, you need to see the full portfolio, spot SKUs below ROP fast, and make adjustments at scale. This dashboard applies the same math across every SKU in a CSV upload, highlights the ones that need attention, and exports an actionable list.

Pair with ABC Analysis and Cycle Counting

Reorder point accuracy depends on accurate on-hand counts. Run ABC Analysis to identify your high-value SKUs, then use the Cycle Count Planner to schedule more frequent counts on A items. Inaccurate counts lead to stockouts (counted higher than actual) or excess holding cost (counted lower than actual) — both undermine the ROP logic.
