Inventory Planner
The market leader in inventory forecasting and planning.
Overview
Inventory Planner, by Sage, is a specialized tool focused on demand forecasting, inventory planning, and purchase order optimization. It analyzes sales history and trends to provide data-driven recommendations on what to order, how much to order, and when. It helps businesses prevent stockouts, reduce overstock, and optimize their cash flow by making smarter purchasing decisions. It is not a full inventory management system, but rather a powerful add-on for forecasting.
