The Store Inventory dashboard helps you optimize inventory at the store level, so you can meet customer demand and maximize sales. You can see how inventory stacks up by product, store, and region and determine if inventory levels are above or below average. 

This dashboard is divided into three sections:

  • Overview: See a snapshot of inventory levels in stores, by quantities, units, and dollars on hand. 
  • Drivers: Understand the factors that contribute to your inventory levels.
  • Details: Dig in to granular information that helps you take action when inventory is high or low.

Overview

The Overview section allows you to get a sense of your inventory status. Use the following map of the screen to guide you.

This heat map allows you to get a pulse on whether inventory is high or low at stores by state, so you can take steps to normalize your inventory levels. This metric is calculated by taking the on hand inventory and dividing it by the average number of units selling in a week. For example, if you have 100 units on hand and sell 50 units in a typical week, you have 2 weeks of supply. The average number of units selling per week is calculated using the time frame you specify in the Weeks of Supply Lookback Period drop-down menu at the top of the dashboard.

Note: Days where are there are no sales will be excluded from the the calculation. For example, if you select a two week lookback period, but there is only data for the second week, we will only use 1 week for the calculation.
