Inventory Report

Modified on Fri, 24 Jan at 4:08 PM

This report shows the current inventory level of each SKU. 


Things to know:

  • Only stocked products are listed in the report
  • Status is based on the "Min" level set from POS > Inventory
  • The inventory page and inventory export are mainly used for stock keeping and are therefore displaying cost as first in, first out.
  • The inventory report is mainly used for finance/accounting and therefore displays cost as averaged
  • By default, the report shows only stocked products. However, a hidden setting allows you to include products with a quantity of 0 in the report. This setting can be enabled by the MyTime team. To activate it, please contact support@mytime.com. Once enabled, the setting cannot be disabled, and products with a quantity of 0 will only be visible in the report if they were added after the setting was activated.

ColumnDescription
BrandBrand of the product
ProductThe full name of the SKU
SKU #The product ID used by your wholesaler or distributor
Cost Basis

The price paid to the vendor for the SKU. If an SKU has multiple shipments, the cost basis will be calculated as the total cost value of all shipments/quantity of all shipments.

Example:

Cost BasisRetail Quantity/StockBack bar Quantity/StockTotal Cost
$690$54
$820$16
Total110$70
 

 

Total cost basis = Total cost / Total quantity

70 / 11 = $6.36

Retail PriceThe price paid by the client for the SKU
% Margin

This is the profitability of each product, expressed as the percentage difference between the Retail Price and the Cost Basis. This metric helps evaluate profit in relation to the selling price, calculated using the formula: (Retail Price − Cost Basis) / Retail Price × 100. For example, a product with a retail price of $50 and a cost basis of $30, the margin is calculated as follows: (50 - 30) / 50 x 100 = 40%

VendorThe supplier of the product
Retail Stock The total retail quantity of the product on hand
Back Bar StockThe total back bar quantity of the product on hand
On Order StockThe total quantity from a Purchase Order in ordered status
Retail Cost ValueTotal retail stock x cost basis
Back bar Cost ValueTotal back bar stock x cost basis
Cost ValueTotal retail and back bar stock x cost basis
Retail ValueTotal retail stock x retail price

MinThe quantity at which you want to be alerted to re-order on MyTime.
MaxThe quantity of each SKU you want to maintain. This is used to calculate the reorder
amount. 
Reorder

The quantity level at which you need to reorder the product.

Reorder = Max - Current Retail & Back Bar Quantity OR 0 if total quantity > max

Example:

Max = 4

Retail Stock = 2

Backbar Stock = 1

Reorder = 4 - (2 + 1) = 1

 

Status

Indicates whether a product needs to be replenished.

Example:

The alert threshold (Min) is 5.

If the retail/back bar quantity =/< 0, status is OUT

If the retail/back bar quantity < alert threshold (Min), the status is LOW

Otherwise, the status is OK
