A Q4 inventory plan can look perfectly healthy until demand changes
Here is a simple example
330 units selling at 10 units a day gives you 33 days of cover
If Q4 demand lifts that to 30 units a day, those same 330 units now give you only 11 days
The inventory did not change
The denominator did
Before placing the next Q4 order, check three things:
Your last safe inventory dates
Your cover days using Q4 demand
Your forecast again before committing cash
That small recalculation can tell you whether an SKU is actually covered, or only looks covered because you are still using normal-season demand
