Inventory Summary – User Guide
Main Stock
This is the actual physical amount of free and reserved product that is in the warehouse.
The formula
Free stock + reserved stock = Main stock.
Example
400 (free) + 200 (reserved) = 600

Reserved Stock
This is the amount held for order or sales but not yet transferred to production (WIP).
The formula
WIP Inventory - Total Reserved = Reserved Stock
Example
350 (Reserved Total) - 150 (WIP) = 200

Free Stock
This is the amount on hand which is not under any pending reservation. It is either sellable or usable for fresh production orders.
The formula
Free Stock = Actual Stock – Reserved Stock
Example
600 (Available) – 250 (Reserved) = 350

WIP Inventory(Work In Progress)
This is the stock that has already been released to production. It is no longer in the free or reserved stock pool.
The formula
Transferred from Reserved Stock
Example
150 units in WIP today

Ordered Stock
Ordered Stock Refers to goods purchased from suppliers but not yet delivered to the warehouse.
The formula
Ordered Stock = Total Stock Ordered – Stock Received
Example
500 (Ordered) - 200 (Received) = 300

Forecasted Stock
A prediction gauge that considers what's currently available and what's soon to be available. Ideal for planning ahead.
The formula
Stock Forecast = Free Stock + Ordered Stock
Example
350 (Free) + 300 (Ordered) = 650
