SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It eliminates the guesswork in replenishing inventory by forecasting per-SKU demand from sales velocity and seasonality, then producing actionable reorder points and quantities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Demand forecasting & trend adjustment: Computes daily velocity from an adjustable historical window and applies a trend multiplier using recent vs prior periods.
  • Reorder planning with guardrails: Calculates days of stock, reorder point, suggested reorder quantity, estimated stockout date, and order-by date using lead time and safety stock.
  • Read-only inventory intelligence: Runs as a safe, non-mutating workflow suitable for routine planning and auditability.

Quick Start

Use the shopify-admin-demand-forecast-reorder skill to forecast demand for the next 30 days with 14-day lead time and 7-day safety stock and generate a reorder_plan CSV for your SKUs.

FAQPage Schema
How do I forecast demand and calculate reorder points for Shopify SKUs?

To forecast demand and calculate reorder points for Shopify SKUs, you need read-only Shopify Admin access to historical orders and inventory levels. This skill computes daily sales velocity and applies a trend multiplier to suggest accurate per-SKU replenishment quantities.

What is sales velocity and how does it drive inventory forecasting?

Sales velocity is the daily rate of inventory depletion over a configurable historical window. In inventory forecasting, it serves as the baseline metric to project future demand, which is then adjusted by recent trend multipliers and lead-time safety buffers.

How do I generate a CSV reorder plan from Shopify Admin data?

You can generate a CSV reorder plan from Shopify Admin data by configuring your forecast window, lead time, and safety stock days. The skill analyzes read-only orders and inventory levels to output a CSV report detailing suggested reorder quantities and order-by dates.

Does this inventory forecasting approach require write access to my Shopify store?

No, this inventory forecasting approach requires only read-only Shopify Admin access to orders, product variants, and inventory items. It runs as a non-mutating workflow, ensuring your store data remains safe and auditable during routine replenishment planning.

Can I adjust lead time and safety stock for SKU reorder planning?

Yes, you can adjust lead time and safety stock for SKU reorder planning. The skill uses these parameters alongside historical sales velocity to calculate days of stock, estimated stockout dates, and dynamic reorder points tailored to your supply chain.

What is the best way to monitor stockout risk for Shopify inventory?

The best way to monitor stockout risk for Shopify inventory is by computing estimated stockout dates and order-by dates from current inventory levels. This skill compares daily sales velocity against lead-time safety buffers to flag SKUs needing immediate reorder planning.
