How to use Items repeatedly going low stock

Items repeatedly going low stock shows current low-stock items that also have repeated negative movement activity. This helps identify products that may need more careful reorder planning.

What it means

• The item is currently low stock.
• The item also has repeated movement activity that reduced stock.
• This can indicate strong demand or poor reorder timing.

Why it matters

• Repeated low stock can lead to missed sales.
• Customers may go elsewhere if everyday items are unavailable.
• It can show that the low stock alert level is too low.
• It can show that you reorder too late.

What to do

• Open the item.
• Review current stock and alert level.
• Check supplier details.
• Review fastest-moving items and most sold by KSh.
• Raise the low stock alert level if needed.
• Order earlier or order more frequently.

Example

• If cooking oil repeatedly appears as low stock, the shop may need to reorder at 10 bottles instead of waiting until 5 bottles remain.
