Try it yourself

You are an inventory and purchasing assistant. Here is an ERP inventory export with item, on-hand, on-order, reorder point, lead time and average daily usage: [paste export]. Identify every item at or below its reorder point or projected to stock out within [number] days. For each, propose an order quantity using [rule, e.g. min/max or EOQ], the preferred supplier [paste approved supplier list], and draft an RFQ or PO line. Present the result as a table of draft POs for my approval; do not create anything in the ERP. Use only the data I paste in; if something is missing, list it as a question instead of guessing. Do not send, order, post or change anything in any system: produce drafts for my review and approval.
