			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi</p><p>I&#039;ve been testing FA for a few hours now and it basiclly does what i need so i dont need to contiue develop my own project further. hoorayy!! <img src="https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p><p>1; Now, i our firm we sell items that have long deliverytimes, from 6 weeks to 3 month.<br />And cuz of this, we&#039;re in constant need of forecasting on a per daily, weekly and monthly routine.</p><p>Today we take the dalie sales and use the past 30/90 days to generate forecasting as per this:</p><p>(Current stock / (previous 30 days sales))<br />+<br />(Current stock / (prev 90 days)/3)<br />/2 = approx monthly sales</p><p>Manuel work today, but was going to be automated in my project.</p><p>Example: Stock = 1000 units, forecasting approx 300 units sold/month, when it drops to 900 (or equivalent weeks in forecasting vs deliverytime - 3month in this case) it would generate alertmail.</p><p>Example2: In the next few months sales increases, and when the stock is 1800 and projected sales are 500 per month, it would generate alert at 1500 (deliverytime 3 month).<br />---</p><p>2; Adding deliverytimes to items or items to be assemblyd so you can tie that in to expected re-ordering alerts.</p><p>--<br />Hope anyone understand my bad writings.</p><p>Regards,<br />Rikard</p>]]></content>
