You can then select the main data in regards to bulk updating any missing records;

Direct Delivery – Stock is delivered to this warehouse directly from the supplier.

Parent Warehouse Code - If stock is not delivered directly to this warehouse and instead it is first delivered to a consolidation point then you will need to select the parent warehouse.

Security Stock (Days) – Minimum number of days of stock required at the warehouse, also know as buffer stock.

Is the Item Contracted – Is the item associated with a contract.


Once done you have the option to 'Create and Overwrite' or 'Create New Only'

• Auto-Calculated demand forecast based on historical transactions - As per the name this option uses historic transactions to calculate how much stock is required for the future.

• LogistiX Flight Schedule Network Analysis - The state of the art forecast algorithm developed by SkyLogistiX which takes your airlines flight schedule, passenger numbers, bill of material data and other complex data to accurately predict how much stock is required to be ordered.

• Third Party forecast loaded and editable by user via the portal - A manually crafted forecast can be created in CSV and uploaded into SkyLog for the item to forward plan.
