LivePlannedToday: NETSTOCK, hand-keyed into BC
Replaces: a NETSTOCK spreadsheet row with no working shown
What the engine saysPlain English first, the arithmetic underneath
MSC East — Brentwood holds 64 free, which is 6 days of cover against a forecast of 10.6 a day. Bio Hygiene needs 3 days and class A carries 7 days of safety stock, so the target position is 106 units. Neither depot has spare cover, so buy 50 from Bio Hygiene.
Do nothing and MSC East — Brentwood runs out on 02/09/2026, which is 6 days. Bio Hygiene needs 3 days to deliver. That is about £232 of sales at risk on this line alone.

Every figure on this page is the one the order will carry. Accepting the line copies none of it by hand.
Cover against lead timeFree stock running down, day by day
The blue line is free stock falling at the forecast rate. The dashed marker is the earliest a supplier delivery could land. Where the line reaches zero first, the depot is short and no amount of ordering on the day it happens will fix it.
Twelve months of demandMSC East — Brentwood
No one-off month found in the last year. Variability is 10 per cent of the mean, which is what sets the confidence on this line.
Eight weeks aheadForecast inside its confidence band
Bio Hazard runs at 92 per cent of an average month now and 106 per cent next month, which the forecast already carries.

Fulfil elsewhere and substitute are the other two options in the client's scope. They are named here and not yet built, because a substitution rule needs their own product data to be honest.
