Quick answer

Reorder point = average daily sales × supplier lead time + safety stock. If you sell 20 units a day, your supplier takes 10 days and you keep 5 days of safety stock, reorder when stock falls to 300 units. Order enough to cover your chosen cover period, for example 30 days (600 units).

How to use this calculator

  1. Use the last 30 days of sales to get average daily sales.
  2. Enter how many days your supplier takes from order to delivery (including inbound to FBA if used).
  3. Choose safety stock days for festival spikes or delays.

Formula

Safety stock = Daily sales × Safety days

Reorder point = Daily sales × Lead time + Safety stock

Order quantity = Daily sales × Cover days

Frequently asked questions

How much safety stock should I keep?
Most small sellers keep 3–7 days of sales as safety stock, and more before festive sales such as Diwali or Big Billion Days.
Does a stock-out hurt my ranking?
Yes. Going out of stock on Amazon or Flipkart can lose you the Buy Box and search rank, which can take weeks to recover.
