- 2222 lines sit under their supplier minimum on their ownEach one is combined onto that supplier's draft order rather than shipped alone, so the minimum is met and carriage is not paid twice.Show these
- 2222 lines carry a one-off monthA mobilisation or a contract pause is excluded from the forecast rather than left to inflate the next order. The exclusion is stated on the line so a buyer can disagree with it.Show these

Products, suppliers, prices and case multiples are MSC's real range. Demand history, lead times and supplier terms are derived for the demo, deterministically, so the figures never move between screens. An asterisk on a lead time means the supplier record carries none and fourteen days was assumed, the same gap the audit found on about 19,900 SKUs. Signed in as Duncan Cusack.
