This report will assist with the ordering process, ensuring you are ordering enough stock for sales and don't have a lot of waste. The "From Date" and "To Date" will determine the date range to pull the sales data to calculate the required amounts to order. The desired gross sales are the projected sales to base the order on. The "Margin" field allows for a buffer if you desire, otherwise it can be left at zero. ![bd8610d1-4826-4862-9aa1-fe5ca3f088db](https://learn.tracrite.net/hs-fs/hubfs/bd8610d1-4826-4862-9aa1-fe5ca3f088db.png?width=518&name=bd8610d1-4826-4862-9aa1-fe5ca3f088db.png) The report will populate with the items allocated to their storage locations and providing you with a suggested amount to order. ![f10ef4a9-6de4-4518-9692-2a48ca90f898](https://learn.tracrite.net/hs-fs/hubfs/f10ef4a9-6de4-4518-9692-2a48ca90f898.png?width=688&name=f10ef4a9-6de4-4518-9692-2a48ca90f898.png) | **Header** | **Detail** | | --- | --- | | Description | The name of the item in Optimum Control. | | UOM | The reporting unit of measure of the item. | | Qty on Hand | The amount Optimum Control is calculating that you have on hand.
