Description

Forthcast is an innovative application designed for Shopify merchants, utilizing AI to enhance demand forecasting and inventory management. By examining the sales history of your store, it predicts SKU-level demand for up to twelve months in advance, ensuring you can make informed purchasing decisions that help avoid both stockouts and excess inventory. Key functionalities include detailed demand forecasts that incorporate seasonal and trend analyses; intelligent reorder notifications alongside calculations for reorder points; automatic generation of purchase orders; tracking of lost sales to assess revenue losses due to stockouts; detection of demand anomalies; support for bundles and kits without duplicating stock; customizable safety stock settings; management of multi-location inventory; and reporting on forecast accuracy. Forthcast connects seamlessly in real-time with Shopify and also integrates with platforms such as Amazon, QuickBooks, Xero, and Notion. It is specifically designed to assist growing retailers with extensive and active product catalogs that have surpassed the capabilities of traditional spreadsheet-based planning systems, providing a more efficient and accurate way to manage their inventory needs. Additionally, this tool empowers merchants to optimize their stock levels effectively, ultimately leading to enhanced profitability and customer satisfaction.

Description

Sales forecasting can be enhanced through the use of machine learning algorithms that analyze various elements such as Seasonal Sales, Recurring Sales, Missed Sales, Related Sales, Marketing Promotions, Trend Impact, Abnormal Demand, and No Demand Cleanup. This process involves the automatic ranking of products at each outlet based on criteria like turnover, margin, and service level, facilitating a more strategic approach to inventory management. Additionally, it calculates the optimal safety stock levels for each product at each outlet to ensure sufficient supplies while minimizing excess. By determining the ideal reserve levels, resources can be utilized more effectively, leading to cost savings and improved efficiency. The system also assesses replenishment needs for all products across outlets and transit warehouses, generating comprehensive reports on product availability and liquidity. Important events trigger email notifications, ensuring relevant stakeholders stay informed. Furthermore, the system provides actionable recommendations for fulfilling calculated needs throughout the supply chain, while accounting for constraints such as priority, financial limits, service levels, and delivery methods. Automatically, it creates Supply and Sales Plans alongside Replenishment and Transfer Orders, streamlining operations and enhancing overall supply chain performance. Ultimately, this approach not only boosts operational efficiency but also improves decision-making processes across the board.
