Inventory is up, and the fast mover still ran out
At month-end the finance head sees ₹4.2 crore of stock, about two weeks more than plan. The same week, the South depot ran out of its best-selling pack twice.
The depot's minimum was typed into SAP two years ago, when the pack sold half as much. Meanwhile the North warehouse holds months of the same pack, and a row of SKUs that have not moved since July. Nobody can say what that stock costs to hold each month.
Each team fixes its own piece. Sales asks for an urgent purchase, the warehouse asks for space, finance asks for less stock. The purchase goes through, and more cash goes onto the shelves.
Why the usual fixes fall short
- ERP minimum and maximum levels are set once and rarely revisited, and they ignore how much demand and supplier lead times actually vary.
- Inventory reports show units and book value, not what each SKU at each location costs to hold every month.
- Slow stock is usually found at the year-end write-off review, after the chance to transfer it or run a scheme has passed.
Inventory keeps growing faster than sales, and every stock-out is answered with another purchase.
- Working capitalCash sits in stock that is slow, aging or in the wrong location.
- ServiceStatic reorder levels run out on growing SKUs while declining SKUs pile up.
- MarginAged stock ends in discounts and write-offs, and you pay to store it every month until then.
- ControlCount variances are posted without a pattern check, so shrinkage hides in the noise.
What Stocki is, and how it fits
- What it is
- An inventory decision layer that sits above SAP. It recalculates reorder points per SKU and location from demand and lead-time variability, prices stock in rupees by age, flags slow and dead stock, runs the warehouse floor from receipt to dispatch, and logs every recommendation and approval.
- Who uses it
- Inventory planners and warehouse supervisors day to day; storekeepers and pickers on handheld scanners; finance controllers for carrying cost and working capital; quality teams for batch trace and recall.
- What it does
- Safety stock at the service level you choose, reorder point and economic order quantity respecting MOQ; carrying cost per SKU-location (capital, storage, insurance, handling, obsolescence by age band); slow-mover and 90-day no-movement flags; goods receipt with quality hold; bin and zone management; cycle counts with variance posting; shrinkage pattern rules; batch genealogy and recall; a statutory stock register.
- How it fits your systems
- Reads from SAP (ECC, S/4HANA or Business One) and recommends. A named person approves before anything is written back. Connections are configured per deployment.
- What is different
- Stock is shown in rupees per month as well as units, and every recommendation lands in an append-only ledger with its sources, its approver and its outcome. Automation is granted one decision type at a time, through an autonomy gate you control.

Capabilities, organized by the work they do
24 modules in 5 groups. Open a module for its inputs, outputs, users and an example.
Reorder and replenishment
Replace static minimum and maximum levels with reorder points that follow real demand, supplier behavior and the season, starting from one clean SKU master.
Stock master and classificationHolds one trusted SKU spine: product hierarchy, units of measure and conversions, barcodes, SAP material mapping, ABC/XYZ classes and shelf-life rules.
- Challenge
- Every system names the same item differently, so every report and reorder rule starts from inconsistent data.
- Inputs
- SKU master and material data from SAP; barcode and shelf-life settings.
- Outputs
- Product, unit and barcode records; an ABC/XYZ class per SKU; FEFO and expiry rules per item.
- Used by
- Inventory planner, master-data team.
- Value
- Service levels, review effort and expiry rules are set by class instead of SKU by SKU.
- Works with
- SAP material master, through the SAP bridge.
- In action · illustrative
- Fast, steady sellers land in AX and get a higher service level than slow, erratic CZ items. An incense SKU carries a shelf-life rule, so issues follow first-expiry, first-out.
Service-level reorder pointsRecalculates safety stock, reorder point and economic order quantity per SKU-location at the service level you choose, as demand and lead times change.
- Challenge
- Minimum levels typed in years ago ignore how variable demand and lead times are, so growing SKUs run out and shrinking ones pile up.
- Inputs
- Average demand and its variability, lead time and its variability, service level, ordering and holding cost, MOQ, seasonal factor.
- Outputs
- A reorder recommendation that waits for a named planner to accept or reject it.
- Used by
- Inventory planner, procurement.

- Reorder levels that match the service you want to give, and an honest view of what each extra point of service costs in cash.
- Works with
- Demand variability from stock movements; lead-time variability from goods receipts.
- In action · illustrative
- A pack selling 40 boxes a day (σ 12) on a 14-day lead time (σ 3) needs about 211 boxes of safety stock at 95% and a reorder point of 771. Its static minimum is 400.
Festival and seasonal stock buildPlans stock ahead of Diwali, Eid, regional peaks and your own schemes by blending a festival calendar and seasonal uplift into replenishment.
- Challenge
- Reorder points built on average demand fall short before a festival and overshoot after it.
- Inputs
- Festival calendar by region, seasonal uplift from past seasons, scheme calendar, reorder parameters.
- Outputs
- Season-adjusted safety stock and reorder points, and a pre-stock plan by week and location.
- Used by
- Inventory planner.

- Outputs
- A transfer recommendation, an approved stock transfer order and in-transit stock.
- Used by
- Inventory planner, warehouse supervisor.
- Value

- Works with
- Transfer orders post to SAP through the bridge after approval.
- In action · illustrative
- Moving 1,200 boxes from a warehouse with 166 days of cover to a depot that stocked out twice.
Inventory in cash
Show finance what stock costs to hold, where it has aged, what is slowing, and where cash can be released.
Carrying cost per SKU-locationPrices each SKU-location per day in rupees: cost of capital, storage, insurance, handling, and an obsolescence charge that rises with age.
- Challenge

What the intelligence actually does
Five levels, from seeing what is happening to learning from it.
Stock by SKU, location, bin and lot, priced in rupees and grouped by age band, with a heat map of movement on the floor.
Safety stock and reorder points from measured demand and lead-time variability at your chosen service level, adjusted for festivals and seasons, plus early flags on SKUs slowing toward dead stock. The math is classical and shown in full.
Reorder, transfer and clearance recommendations, each waiting for a named person to accept or reject.
Posts approved changes to SAP, such as stock transfer orders and new reorder parameters, within the autonomy level you grant.
The ledger records each recommendation, override and outcome; observed lead times and demand variability feed the next calculation.
Runs automatically
- Recalculating safety stock, reorder points and order quantities
- Carrying cost per SKU-location, every day
- Slow-mover, no-movement and age-band flags
- Shrinkage pattern checks on count variances
- Writing every recommendation to the ledger
Always waits for a named person
- Accepting a reorder recommendation
- Any stock transfer between locations
- Markdown, clearance or write-off of aged stock
- Posting a count variance
- Quarantine and release in a recall
- Raising the autonomy level for any decision type
What it helps you work toward, and how we measure it
We agree the baseline with you in writing before a pilot starts. These are the outcomes we measure.
Less cash in the wrong stock
Aged and misplaced stock is visible in rupees while it can still be moved or sold.
Value of stock with no movement in 90+ days, month on month, against a baseline agreed in writing.
Fewer stock-outs on fast movers
Reorder points that follow demand and lead-time variability at the service level you set.
Stock-out days by SKU class and location.
Carrying cost the CFO can see
A monthly cost of holding stock, broken down by component and age band.
Monthly carrying cost in rupees by age band, reconciled to finance's rates.
Reorder levels that stay current
Parameters recalculated as demand and supplier behavior change.
Share of SKU-locations whose reorder point was recalculated in the last month.
Decisions on record
Every recommendation tied to its evidence, its approver and its result.
Recommendations with an approver and a recorded outcome, as a share of all recommendations.
A pack selling 40 boxes a day (σ 12) on a 14-day lead time that varies by about 3 days needs roughly 211 boxes of safety stock at a 95% service level, and a reorder point of about 771. Its static minimum of 400 is below the 560 boxes it sells during an average lead time, which is why it keeps running out. Raising service from 95% to 99% adds about 40% more safety stock, the cash cost of the last few points of service.
