Calculate demand before creating a supply
For Tiki, combine sales, available, reserved and inbound inventory with the full supplier-to-receiving lead time.
The operating flow is inventory is separated between TikiNOW Smart Logistics and seller warehouses. Do not combine every warehouse and model into one demand number.
Break down replenishment lead time
Separate production or purchasing, consolidation, transport, booking and receiving. Add safety stock only for measurable uncertainty.
- 1
Set sales and seasonality.
- 2
Subtract available and confirmed inbound units.
- 3
Add demand for the full replenishment lead time.
- 4
Round to case pack or supplier minimum.
Prepare a consistent batch
Use this labeling context: product barcode, SKU and Vietnamese logistics label. Product-label quantity must match the physical batch.
Before dispatch, verify destination, date, cases, documents and every item status.
Close the supply after receiving
Compare shipped, received, problematic and returned quantities. Do not silently carry differences into the next order.
Feed actual lead time and receiving outcome back into the next replenishment calculation.
Frequently asked questions
How does SellerStrat calculate a Tiki order?
Available and confirmed inbound units are subtracted from lead-time demand, then the result is rounded to batch rules.
Why close receiving?
Actual variance and receiving time affect the next calculation. An open supply creates false inbound inventory.
