Use the safety stock calculator \u2193<\/a><\/p>\r\n

The safety stock formula<\/strong> for variable daily demand and a fixed replenishment lead time is SS = z \u00d7 \u03c3d \u00d7 \u221aL<\/strong>. Here, z represents the target cycle service level, \u03c3d is the standard deviation of daily demand, and L is lead time in days. It is useful only when those assumptions fit your data.<\/p>\r\n

If lead time also varies, the calculation changes. If you only have maximum and average values, you can use a simpler estimate, but that number does not establish a particular service level.<\/p>\r\n

Choose the formula after checking how you place orders and when replenishment becomes usable. Using factory completion as the end of lead time, for example, leaves transit and receiving demand out of the calculation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
