Key inventory planning features for Cin7 Omni users

Get reliable demand forecasting from Cin7 Omni data

Inventory Planner offers different forecasting models for products that sell differently, such as seasonal, non-seasonal, retail and wholesale products. It also factors in holiday seasons, YoY sales fluctuations, unusual spikes, promotions and most recent sales trends for ultimate forecasting accuracy.

Get smarter SKU-level purchasing recommendations

Inventory Planner tells you exactly how much inventory you need and when to order it by analyzing your forecasted demand, supply patterns and optimal purchasing frequency. Get recommendations at the level you want such as SKU, assemblies, bundles, product categories, supplier and warehouse as well as new products – saving you hours on tedious, error-prone calculations.

Reduce excess inventory and free up cash flow

Inventory Planner flags up all items that aren’t selling in line with forecasted demand and offers key insights like overstocked costs, last sold date and overstocked units, so you can liquidate the most costly items first before they completely lose appeal and drain cash flow.

Simplify inventory planning across multiple locations

Inventory Planner automatically forecasts demand for each of your inventory locations including your own warehouse, brick and mortar stores, Amazon FBA, and 3PLs, so you can easily know what to buy and when to order for each location. Plus, it offers warehouse transfer suggestions to perfectly balance items from one location to another.

Plan and optimize your purchasing budgets

Inventory Planner’s Open-to-Buy (OTB) lets you plan your buying budgets by month or retail week. Plan at the level that works for you and include metrics like your previous years’ revenue, expected margins and even the exact number of units you need to order based on retail price.

Create clear, actionable reports with Cin7 Omni data

Inventory Planner automatically turns your inventory and sales date into 200+ meaningful metrics with the level of detail you prefer (from warehouse highlights to granular SKU-by-SKU analysis). Easily see the forecasted lost revenue or profit if you delay purchasing, your most expensive overstocked items, as well as your Google Analytics metrics.
