Key inventory planning features for Walmart sellers

1

Forecast customer demand accurately using Walmart data

Inventory Planner predicts customer demand for all your products including seasonal, non-seasonal, retail and wholesale products. It also factors in promotions, holiday periods, YoY sales fluctuations, unusual spikes and most recent sales trends for ultimate forecasting accuracy.

2

Get reliable inventory planning with forecast insights

Inventory Planner tells you how much inventory you need and when is best to order it based on accurate, data-led forecasts. As it considers all your items including bundles, assemblies and new products, it saves hours on tedious, error-prone calculations. Plus, it speeds up making purchase orders.

3

Identify and eliminate cash-draining inventory quickly

Inventory Planner flags up all items that aren’t selling in line with forecasted demand and offers key insights like overstocked costs, last sold date and overstocked units, so you can liquidate the most costly items first before they completely lose their appeal and drain your cash flow.

4

Simplify inventory planning across multiple Walmart locations

Inventory Planner offers reliable, intuitive inventory purchasing recommendations for each of your inventory locations including Amazon FBA, your own warehouses and 3PLs. It even tells you whether inventory should be transferred from one warehouse to another, so you can better meet customer demand without ordering new inventory.

5

Plan and optimize your purchasing budgets

Inventory Planner’s Open-to-Buy (OTB) lets you plan your buying budgets by month or retail week. Plan at the level that works for you and include metrics like your previous years’ revenue, expected margins and even the exact number of units you need to order based on retail price.

6

Create powerful, easy-to-understand inventory reports

Inventory Planner consolidates your data in one place and translates it into 200+ meaningful metrics. You can run the reports at any level you want – from warehouse level to SKU level. Plus, when integrating with Google Analytics, Inventory Planner allows you to couple your inventory data with marketing metrics for extra-detailed insights.
