How to calculate reorder point

Reorder point = daily demand × lead time + safety stock

Use days for both daily demand and lead time. The reorder point is the inventory position that triggers a replenishment review.

Worked example

For 20 units per day, a 14-day lead time and 31 safety-stock units: 20 × 14 + 31 = 311 units.

When to use this formula

This is a continuous-review trigger. Check inventory position, open purchase orders, reserved stock and changes in demand. Periodic review policies need additional coverage.

Formula reference: Read the source explanation.

Is reorder point the same as order quantity?

No. Reorder point tells you when to review replenishment. Order quantity tells you how much to buy.
