Replaces: a NETSTOCK spreadsheet row with no working shown
What the engine saysPlain English first, the arithmetic underneath
MSC East — Brentwood holds 14 free with 27 already inbound, which is 4 days of cover against a forecast of 9.8 a day. Northwood Hygiene Products needs 12 days and class A carries 7 days of safety stock, so the target position is 186 units. MSC West — Feltham can release 113, so move 113 first and buy the remaining 40 from Northwood Hygiene Products.
Do nothing and MSC East — Brentwood runs out on 28/08/2026, which is 1 days. Northwood Hygiene Products needs 12 days to deliver. That is about £3,063 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.
