What inventory calculations matter most for a cannabis distributor?

Focus on available to sell inventory, sell through rate, days of supply, and reorder point because they directly impact cash flow and service levels. Track shrink and adjustments separately so you can spot process issues early. Tie these numbers back to batch and lot level movement so the math matches what actually happened in the warehouse.

How do I calculate reorder point for cannabis products with volatile demand?

Start with average daily sales, multiply by lead time in days, then add safety stock based on demand swings and supplier reliability. Recalculate often by SKU because seasonality and promotions can change velocity quickly. If you routinely stock out or overbuy, adjust safety stock first before changing your lead time assumptions.

How can Distru help me track inventory accuracy and shrink across warehouses?

Distru ERP tracks inventory movements at the package and batch level so you can reconcile on hand inventory against sales, transfers, and adjustments. You can log cycle counts and inventory adjustments with clear audit trails, which helps you pinpoint where shrink is coming from. Seed to sale inventory management and compliance automation also reduce manual entry errors that create false shrink.

What is the best way to measure sell through for cannabis wholesale inventory?

Compare units sold over a time period to the units received or available during that same period to see how quickly product moves. Break it out by SKU, brand, and category so you can tell if slow movement is a product issue or a pricing and sales execution issue. Pair sell through with days of supply so you can prioritize what to reorder versus what to discount.

Can Distru improve cost and margin calculations for cannabis distribution?

Distru ERP includes cost accounting tools that help you track landed costs, production related costs, and true margin by item and order. When costs are captured consistently, your margin calculations stop drifting from reality and you can price wholesale deals more confidently. This also makes it easier to see which SKUs look profitable but actually lose money after adjustments and write downs.

How does Distru support compliance friendly inventory calculations with Metrc?

Distru supports seed to sale traceability and Metrc aligned inventory workflows so the numbers you use for available inventory and adjustments match compliance records. DistruLabels helps with Metrc labeling to reduce package level mistakes that throw off counts. When compliance data and warehouse counts stay in sync, your inventory calculations become more reliable for reordering and sales planning.
