It's not as fancy as the name suggest. It simply tries to keep your stock levels above a pre-defined minimum level by suggesting purchase orders when your stock drops below that level. It doesn't do any sort of advanced forecasting of demand. Typically used for items with a regular demand and where the cost of keeping stock is (very) low compared to the cost of running out of stock. Not that I know anything about Inventory Control, so I'm happy to swap my view for that of an expert. Have you checked the help files in Baan?
