3. FAQ
Quick Links: FAQ | Important Notes
3.1 FAQ
▪ What does the "Current Stock" number mean?
The meaning of "目前庫存" depends on the mechanism:
- Stock Quantity / Turnover Days: current qualifying stock level
- Stalled Days: shipment volume over the lookback window
▪ How is the health ratio calculated?
Health Ratio = Current Stock ÷ Threshold × 100%
The threshold calculation depends on the mechanism:
- Stock Quantity: the value you set
- Turnover Days: average daily sales × target coverage days
- Stalled Days: the shipment threshold you set
▪ Why can't I see the edit or delete buttons?
Your account may lack edit or delete permission. Contact your system administrator to confirm.
▪ Does deleting a tracker affect inventory?
No. Trackers are monitoring tools only; deleting one does not change actual stock.
▪ How do I edit quickly from the detail page?
Click the "Edit" button at the top right to open the edit page.
