What it's for

One inbox with problems across the supply chain so none gets missed: stockouts, late orders, overstock, dead stock, lots expiring.

Step by step

  1. 1

    The inbox

    Each alert with its severity and the money at stake. Filter by severity or type, resolve, snooze or dismiss; what's resolved is logged.

Example: US$ 8.6 million at stake

Acme's center has 148 critical alerts; the first is a purchase order 33 days late that puts several products at risk.

Tips

  • Check it every morning: it's sorted so the most expensive comes first.
