Reorder Point

The stock level at which a new order should be placed to avoid running out before the next delivery arrives.

The reorder point is a minimum stock threshold that triggers a purchase order. It is calculated based on average daily usage and the lead time for delivery. Setting reorder points for each medicine ensures you never run out of critical stock. Musawo allows you to set minimum stock levels and alerts you when quantities fall below the threshold.
