    question y must have a category of Seasonality ABC -> Consumes XYZ -> Variation of Consumes What other element do you consider relevant apart from consumption and variability of consumption? Example i think something like Seasonility (but is nearly similar to Variation of Consumes) DEF -> Seasonality

  • @abcsc
    @abcscАй бұрын

    XYZ is used to assess the uncertainty of your products. There is no such thing as adding a category for seasonality. If you want to be more precise, you can use forecast accuracy instead of the coefficient of variation in the XYZ classification. Thus, the uncertainty is assessed with the level of accuracy of your forecast

  • @abcsc
    @abcscАй бұрын

    Thank you for the feedback. If you have high level of demand standard deviation, then the formula remains the same, you will just have higher safety stock. If you have stockouts as you say, you may want to clean your past sales (get rid of the 0, =stockout correction) before calculating your safety stock, to capture unconstrained demand

  • @abcsc
    @abcsc2 ай бұрын

    Power BI is primarily a Business Intelligence (BI) tool, designed to visualize data rather than to calculate it. While it does offer some basic automatic forecasting features, they are relatively simple and not highly customizable. This is somewhat akin to the basic forecasting options available in Excel. However, unlike Excel, where you have more flexibility to tweak and tailor your forecasts, Power BI’s capabilities in this area are more limited.

    Thank you so much Edward. Do you think, it would be better if we rename the store turn in days and instead to call it stock days of coverage (DOC)

  • @abcsc
    @abcsc3 ай бұрын

    As you wish. It depends on the context and your audience. Days of Coverage might be more understood by people not familiar with inventory management jargon. It intuitively suggests how many days the current inventory will last under normal operation conditions. Stock Turn in Days refers to how many days, on average, it takes to sell the entire inventory. In the end, it is the same.

    ​​​@@abcsc in many literatures Inventory/stock turn and Inventory turnover are used interchangeably meanwhile inventory days refer to the average amount of time in which a company’s inventory is held on hand until it is sold. And I am not meet the case that inventory cycle is used as inventory turnover. In your video you used inventory cycle and stock turn in days/in weeks instead- it's a little confusing as you have mentioned. Especially the formula at 3.30 may be wrongly understood by students

    @@GoldenMouse-1001@GoldenMouse-1001, indeed, there are many ways to say the same thing. Sometimes, it emphasizes different aspects of the measurement. In the end, the main difference is whether you calculate the ratio or the count of days. I like "Stock Turn" because it's short and concise. In my courses, I always tell my students I prefer using days because ratio is not intuitive. So I don't need to specify "stock turn IN DAYS" each time. I just don't like jargon and endless theory , keep it simple 😉

    Thank you so much for your video Eduardo, very impressive and easy to understand. I am familiar with six sigma and normal distribution, so this is an excellent example of its application in inventory control. Just one comment, considering your example, could you kindly explain why is the reorder point so big (1,345)? Should it be a complement for the annual (12,000) or monthly demands (1,000) or the EOQ value? Thanks for your great work!

  • @abcsc
    @abcsc3 ай бұрын

    Hi Tomas, thank you very much for your positive feedback. The Reorder point is "big" because the lead time is "big" too. You need to cover the average demand, which is 1000/month. The lead time is 35 days or 1.15 months. 1000*1.15=1,150. Which is the minimum value you need without safety stock. With safety stock, it is 1,345

  • @abcsc

    Hi! Regarding the inventory turnover, you obviously don't use sales price for MRO inventory. So you can either use the cost price, or value the cost of having a stockout. In sales field, the cost of having a stockout is just the sales price value (and customer dissatisfaction). In MRO, you would need a deeper analysis to assess the cascading effect of missing a critical part. But keep it easy, use the item cost price :)

    Hi Sebastien (just answering you in English for my English channel 😉). Consider two scenarios regarding how price changes affect demand: -If changing the price impacts demand (which it usually does), I recommend checking out my Forecasting Expert course. In this course, I cover how to manage price elasticity effectively. You can find more details at: abcsupplychain.com/demand-forecasting-course/ -If changing the price does not significantly alter demand, it's advisable to normalize the sales data if the product price fluctuates frequently within the year. However, if the cost price only changes annually, no further adjustments are necessary.

    I talk more about setting service level targets in my ABC XYZ video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X3uju6twZJnRdbw.html Targeting high service levels, no matter the category, assumes you focus exclusively on service levels and not on inventory costs. This kind of supply chain strategy typically prioritizes customer satisfaction, responsiveness, and flexibility above cost minimization. E.g.: High-end Luxury Goods where the cost of not meeting customer demand can be very high in terms of lost sales and diminished brand loyalty. Or Spare Parts and Maintenance where the cost of machinery downtime can be significantly higher than the cost of carrying extra inventory. But for most companies, you need to find the right balance between service levels and inventory levels. Again, Check my ABC XYZ video where I talk about it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X3uju6twZJnRdbw.html
