What this means

Your current inventory looks reasonably balanced for the sales pace and lead time entered.

At your adjusted sales pace, you are selling about 2 units per day. Your current inventory is estimated to last about 22 days.

Your suggested reorder point is 42 units. When inventory reaches this level, it may be time to produce or order more stock.

Monitor sales velocity and restock before inventory falls below your reorder point.
