The vocabulary Logistified uses — both standard inventory terms (DOH, MOQ, safety stock) and the names of features specific to this app. Terms in the body of any page can be hovered to see the short definition; click through to land here.
Also known as: ABC, ABC classification
A method for prioritising variants by importance. “A” items drive most of the revenue and warrant the closest forecasting attention; “C” items are long-tail. Logistified runs ABC analysis automatically and surfaces it on the Overview Dashboard and on the Forecast page.
Also known as: DOH, DSI, Days Sales of Inventory, Average Days to Sell Inventory
How many days of demand your current stock covers, at the current sales rate. Lower DOH means stock is moving quickly; higher DOH means you may be over-stocked. Computed as Average Inventory / COGS × 365.
Also known as: Lead times, Supplier lead time
The number of days between placing a PO and the stock arriving in your warehouse. Logistified can either use a value you set per supplier-variant pair, or learn the actual lead time from the receive dates of past POs.
Also known as: MOQ, MOQs
The smallest quantity a supplier is willing to ship in a single PO line. Logistified rounds reorder suggestions up to the MOQ (or the next multiple of the pack size) so suggestions are immediately actionable.
Also known as: Buffer stock
Extra inventory held above forecasted demand to absorb variability — demand spikes, longer-than-expected lead times, supplier hiccups. Higher safety stock reduces stock-outs but raises holding costs; Logistified surfaces both sides of that trade-off.
Also known as: SKUs, Stock Keeping Unit
A Stock Keeping Unit — the unique code that identifies a single sellable variant of a product. Every variant in Logistified is keyed by its SKU; variants without a SKU are flagged on the data-quality tile.
