Export the forecast volume of recurring deliveries
In order to plan your warehouse stock for the delivery of your recurring delivery subscriptions, an export is available.
Go to the Locations - Logistics and transport menu
Click on the dark grey button "Prévision des volumes"
This button is only accessible if a recurring delivery subscription has been taken out on your platform.
In the pop-in, select the number of months over which you want to perform your export.
You can export a volume forecast from 1 month, 2 months, etc... up to 12 months.
If you perform the export on December 1st, you will get a forecast of planned shipments up to and including January 1st.
Click on "Exporter": your export file is automatically downloaded by your browser.
Results of your forecast export
In your forecast export, you will find 4 columns:
- Product ID = this is the ID of the product on the platform
- Product name
- Product SKU
- Quantity = this is the quantity of the product forecast for shipment over the next X months (X being the number of months over which you performed your export)
Please note:
- The initial delivery is not included in the forecast
- Future deliveries are included in the forecast, then removed from it once they have been shipped
Example of forecast evolution: you have a subscription to a product XXX every month and a subscription to a product YYY every 2 months. The forecast will be as follows:
- Forecast over 1 month: XXX = 1 ; YYY = 0
- Forecast over 2 months: XXX = 2 ; YYY = 1
- Forecast over 3 months: XXX = 3 ; YYY = 0
- Forecast over 4 months: XXX = 4 ; YYY = 2
