Buying and reordering

The Buy Sheet: what to reorder

Reorder recommendations based on sales velocity, supplier lead time and live stock on hand.

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.

What each column tells you

  • On hand / Incoming , current available stock across your locations, and units already on the way from open purchase orders.
  • Sold 30 / 90 / 365 , units sold over the last 30, 90, and 365 days, so both fast movers and slow seasonal lines are visible.
  • Days of cover , how long current stock will last at the recent sales pace. Products fall to Low when cover drops under your warning threshold, and Out at zero.
  • Recommended order , how many units to buy so you land back at your cover target, taking incoming stock and the supplier's lead time into account.

Turning the Buy Sheet into purchase orders

Tick the products you want to reorder and press Create purchase orders. If the products you selected belong to different suppliers, Miko automatically splits them into one draft purchase order per supplier, each with the recommended quantities filled in. You can also assign a supplier to any product inline, right from the Buy Sheet.

Tune the recommendations: In Settings → Forecasting you control the cover target (how many days of stock to aim for), the low-stock warning threshold, and a default supplier lead time. These three numbers drive every recommendation.
