Reorder Point

A reorder point is the stock threshold at which replenishment should start to cover demand during supply lead time, often including safety stock.

Definition

In general ERP practice

A reorder point is the stock threshold at which replenishment should start to cover demand during supply lead time, often including safety stock. It is a policy input rather than an order quantity.

In Odoo

Odoo’s minimum quantity on a reordering rule provides the closest threshold. The rule considers forecast stock and replenishment timing; the maximum and quantity multiple determine how much to propose or procure.
