The Buy Sheet is the heart of Miko Restock: Inventory & PO. It lists every product with its sales pace, how many days of cover you have left, and a recommended order quantity, so you can see what to reorder at a glance.
Where to find it
Open Buy Sheet from the app menu. Rows are sorted by urgency: out of stock first, then running low with the least cover at the top.

What each column tells you
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| On hand / Incoming | Current available stock across your locations, and the incoming quantity Shopify holds for the product (for example stock on a Shopify transfer). |
| Sold 30d | Units sold over the last 30 days. Sales over 90 and 365 days are also read, so both fast movers and slow seasonal lines get a sales rate. |
| Days of cover | How long on-hand plus incoming stock will last at the recent sales pace. Products fall to Low when cover drops under your warning threshold, and Out at zero. |
| Order qty | How many units to buy so you land back at your cover target, taking incoming stock and the supplier's lead time into account. |
Tune the recommendations
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Cover target (days) | 45 | How many days of stock to aim for when an order is recommended. |
| Low stock warning (days of cover) | 14 | A product counts as running low when its cover drops under this. |
| Default supplier lead time (days) | 14 | Used when a product has no supplier, or its supplier has no lead time set. |
These three numbers drive every recommendation.
Example
The sales rate uses the last 90 days, falling back to 30 days and then 365 days when a window has no sales. A product that sold 180 units in 90 days sells 2 a day. With a 45-day cover target and a 14-day lead time it needs (45 + 14) × 2 = 118 units. With 30 on hand and none incoming, the recommended order is 118 − 30 = 88. Where a supplier minimum order quantity is recorded for the product, the order is raised to that minimum.
