Demand spiking above forecast
CRITICALDonut Fryer Oil 20L
Donut Fryer Oil 20L usage is running 28% above its forecasted rate this week. At the current pace it sells out by Thursday — 6 pending customer orders would be blocked. Recommend reordering today rather than waiting for the scheduled Jun 12 cycle.
Recurring stockout pattern detected
CRITICALCocoa Powder 5kg
Cocoa Powder 5kg has now hit zero stock twice in the last 60 days on a similar day-of-month cycle. This looks like a reorder-point issue rather than a one-off demand spike — the trigger threshold is set too close to the actual lead time.
Weekend demand pattern strengthening
WATCHGlazed Donut Mix 50lb
Weekend order volume for Glazed Donut Mix 50lb has grown relative to weekday volume over the past 3 weeks. The forecast has adjusted its weekly seasonality upward, which pulled the projected reorder date 2 days earlier than last month.
Lower forecast confidence than usual
INFOChocolate Sprinkles 5kg
This SKU has less order history than most others in the catalog, so its forecast interval is wider than average. Treat the reorder date as a range rather than a fixed day until more history accumulates.
Demand has stabilized
INFOBread Flour 50lb
After several volatile weeks, Bread Flour 50lb demand has settled into a steady, predictable pattern. Buffer stock could likely be trimmed without added stockout risk, freeing up warehouse space for faster-moving items.
