What this calculator shows
This tool translates on-hand inventory into days and weeks of supply after reservations, then compares present and incoming stock with expected lead-time demand.
How to use it
Enter physical on-hand units, confirmed incoming units, reserved stock, average daily demand and supplier lead time to model near-term inventory coverage.
Calculation method
Available stock is on hand minus reservations. Days of cover divide that balance by daily demand; the lead-time projection subtracts demand before arrival and flags any shortfall.
