Overview
The Restock application simplifies the decision-making process by:
Analyzing Sales Data: It reviews your historical sales—specifically, the number of units sold over the last 30 days.
Monitoring Inventory Levels: It automatically integrates with your Amazon seller account to access your current AFN (Amazon Fulfillment Network) inventory.
Calculating Restock Needs: By considering your desired target days of stock, the tool computes the precise number of additional units required to keep your inventory optimal.
Note: The interface displays key metrics such as target days of stock, units sold in the past 30 days, current AFN total inventory, and the calculated restock need.
How It Works
Input Your Target Days of Stock:
Determine the number of days you want to have sufficient inventory on hand.
Automated Data Analysis:
The system evaluates your sales history and current inventory. It uses the formula:
Need = [ (Target Days in Stock × Amount Sold in 30 Days) / 30 ] - Current AFN Total Inventory
Target Days in Stock: The number of days you wish to cover with your current inventory.
Amount Sold in 30 Days: Total units sold in the previous month.
Current AFN Total Inventory: The current number of units available in your Amazon fulfillment centers.
Receive a Recommended Order Quantity:
Based on the calculation, the application provides you with an actionable number—indicating exactly how many units you should reorder.
Download, Filter, and Refresh Your Data:
Enhance your inventory management by downloading your sales and inventory data for offline analysis, applying filters to focus on specific segments, and refreshing the data to ensure you always have the most current information from your Amazon account.
Best Practices
Regular Monitoring:
Periodically review your sales trends and adjust your target days of stock as needed to account for seasonal fluctuations or changes in demand.
Combine with Other Insights:
Use the Restock App alongside other Seller Labs PRO tools to get a holistic view of your business performance.
Stay Updated:
Ensure that your Amazon seller account is properly linked and your inventory data is current to maintain the accuracy of the calculations.
Conclusion
The Restock App in Seller Labs is an essential tool for any Amazon seller looking to optimize their inventory management. By integrating real-time sales and inventory data, it empowers you to make informed, data-driven decisions that help maintain operational efficiency and support sustainable growth.
