Store Ops · Demand Forecasting

Order for what sells, not for what you remember.

Reordering from memory is how a shop ends up with dead stock in one aisle and empty pegs in the next. EBAYSIC reads your own sales rhythm and tells you what to buy, how much, and for which store.

What is inside

Forecasting that fits the counter it runs on.

Living reorder points

Each item's reorder level is recalculated from live sales velocity, supplier lead time and seasonality - not a static number on a shelf card.

Dead stock, caught early

Items losing pace are flagged while there is still time to discount, transfer or stop reordering.

Reads your calendar

Festivals, paydays, weekends and weather swings all shape demand. The forecast accounts for them from your own history.

Per-store, not one-size

A busy high-street shop and a quiet neighbourhood store get their own forecasts, so each orders for its own reality.

Suggested purchase orders

Turn the forecast into a draft order per supplier in a click, then adjust and approve - no blank-page guessing.

Sharper over time

The model learns from your counter, so the longer EBAYSIC runs, the more its calls reflect how your shop actually sells.

From signal to order

A draft purchase order, already reasoned out.

Instead of staring at a blank order form, you start from a considered suggestion - item, quantity and store - that you can trust and tweak.

  • Reorder points that track live demand
  • Lead-time aware, so orders land before you run dry
  • Seasonal and event-aware from your own history
  • One-click draft orders per supplier

Questions

Forecasting, answered.

Does forecasting need months of data to be useful?

It starts adding value from your early trading history and keeps improving. Even in the first weeks it surfaces fast movers and slow stock; the seasonal reads sharpen as more of your own history builds up.

Is this a generic model or based on my sales?

It is built on your own counter. The patterns it acts on - your busy hours, your festival spikes, your slow lines - come from your stores, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Can I override what it suggests?

Always. Forecasts and suggested orders are a starting point you stay in control of. You can adjust quantities, exclude items or ignore a suggestion entirely.
