  5. To see the same report for another day, change As Of. Click PDF or XLSX to save it.

Tip

Products near the top with a high Value are the ones to look at first. Think about a discount, a return to the vendor, or a pause on buying more.

Note

Only completed stock moves are counted. Goods count only once they have been received or delivered.

What happens next

If you decide to stop buying a product, update its reordering rule.
