Overview

This report allows you to choose several time periods to view year-over-year sales along with current inventory comparisons, shipments and on order data in a single report for different levels of location detail. This report is very useful as a web query as it can provide the equivalent data of multiple reports in a single request. This report allows drill-down capability to store item-level details.

Note: The time ranges in this report relate to the sales data; the inventory data is always based on the latest available time period.


Calculating WOS

We did not include a WOS calculation to this report since most users will want to set this up for themselves based on their business need. In addition, since this report allows you to look at different time ranges within the same report, you can calculate WOS on more than 1 metric.

The best way to calculate WOS is to create the report you want and then convert it to a web query. You can then add a WOS calculation to this report and then every time you update the web query, the WOS calculation will also update.

The most common way of calculation WOS is using last week's sales divided by current inventory. We also recommend using a forward-looking calculation by using the Next 2 Weeks LY as your time frame. This way you are calculating what the WOS will look like based on future sales instead of past sales.
