How suggested reorder points work
Suggestions look at roughly the last 90 days of your sales invoices in Xero and compute, per SKU:
- Weekly velocity = units sold ÷ weeks in the window
- Safety stock ≈ one week of demand
- Reorder point = weekly velocity × 2-week assumed lead time + safety stock
- Reorder qty ≈ four weeks of cover
These are starting points, not verdicts — every number is editable before you apply, items with no recent sales start unticked, and rules created this way carry a "suggested" label until you save your own values. Your existing rules are never overwritten.
Privacy note: the calculation aggregates quantities per item at the moment you request it. No customer identities are stored, and nothing is ever trained on your Xero data.
