Usually the reorder point triggers the procurement of material up to a defined
level (fill-up) or a quantity to be determined by an MRP run.
So if the stock is slightly above reorder point and some goods are issed
(medicine...) it falls below reorder and trigger a purchase.
If the stock was already below, the procurement process is running and the Doc
may consume what is there - or not.
So the trick is to find the right amount of (average) day's supply for your
reorder point. If you have a small procurement time (until the medicine is
delivered) you can usually keep lower stock levels than with high procurement
times/high consumption patterns.
Your usage figures should give you an indication
