Hi Jon The last date of issue being very old as of date ( viz. the date of review ) gives an indicator of for how long the item has not been moving. You could possibly set your own parameters ( based on industry standards .... the lead time and usage pattern are helpful in this regard.....standard deviation give you allowances and help you study industry specific and seasonal variations and assign reasons ...actually this helps you re-fix reorder levels and re order quantities to reduce the recurrence of slow and non movers in future ) Let us assume you are reviewing on 31 Dec 2010 One possibility is : Stocks are available and last date of issue is prior to 01 July 2010. I could categorize this as a slow mover. Stocks are available and last date of issue is prior to 01 January 2010. I could categorize this as a non-mover mover. Stocks are available and last date of issue is prior to 01 July 2009. I could possibly categorize this as a dead stock. I would attach top priority to large stock closing balances of such items in terms of value ( and volume occupied by the stocks ). The ABC analysis helps me make corrective and preventive decisions in this regard. Regards VidhyaDhar

As you mentioned that(1)what do i do when i have a pattern of deviation from amc/awc and how to deal with it?(2) when i have shortlisted items with last issues in past 3 months, past 6 months, past 12 months, how does these groups tell and identify slow movers? I am thinking slow movers have low qty issues per week or month and or even per transaction and low number of issues annually. What do you think? Hope share ur ideas again.
