FAQ

How often should I order from each supplier?

Often enough that each order isn't tying up too much cash, but not so often that shipping costs eat your margin. Two to four weeks is common for domestic suppliers.

Does the schedule replace reorder points?

No. Check reorder points between scheduled orders too, so a best-seller doesn't run out before the next review.
