Why reorder points
Fewer stockouts, less overstock
Ordering at the right level keeps best sellers on the shelf without tying up cash in extra stock.
See low stock before it costs a sale
An alert reaches you when a product hits its reorder point, so you can order in time.
Order at the right level
Reorder when stock reaches a set level, not “just in case”. You decide what to order and how much.
