Hi,
How can I tell how many days of cover I have for an item (parent or component) 
based on historical usage. Eg if I have 10 of item x on hand and 4 were issued 
to shop orders in the last 50 days then based on historical usage I have 125 
days of cover.
Our forecasting is poor so I need to look at history before committing to buy 
stock. I would prefer to dump into excel so that I can sort by days of cover. 
We are currently using version 6.1

Thanks

Joe
