Stock Reorder Point Calculator

Reorder point = (average daily sales × lead time) + safety stock. Below it, you order. Above it, you wait.

Safety stock cushions against demand spikes and supplier delays. Set it to 25-50% of lead-time demand.

Why reorder point matters for SMEs

Stockouts kill sales. Overstock kills cash. Reorder points balance both.

Veira sends a WhatsApp alert the moment any SKU drops below its reorder point.

Prefer this running automatically, on every sale, with no manual entry?

Frequently asked questions

How do I set safety stock?
Start at 25% of lead-time demand. Increase if supplier reliability is poor.
Does seasonality affect it?
Yes. Recompute daily sales for the season.
What if lead time varies?
Use the higher (worst-case) lead time when setting reorder point.
Does Veira automate this?
Yes. Veira sets per-SKU reorder points from 90 days of POS history.
Is this the same as EOQ?
No. EOQ tells you how much to order. ROP tells you when.

Doing this by hand every time? Veira runs the same calculation automatically on every sale, no spreadsheet required.
