Illustrative planning example. Not a customer case study, real order, live stock count or verified sales result.
| Demand | Sellable | Usable incoming | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1 | 2 | 0 |
The situation
The illustrative requirement is two Fan M shirts of the same exact design. One usable matching piece is on hand, and two matching pieces are confirmed incoming and available to this demand. There is no real buyer, parcel or tracking claim in this note.
The review
The arithmetic is 2 − 1 − 2. The displayed gap is 0, with no immediate shortage shown. This calculation does not promise the shipment’s arrival; it assumes the incoming pieces can cover the requirement in time.
Check the assumption before acting
If the two incoming shirts are allocated elsewhere, a different version, or too late for the requirement, they cannot simply reduce this row. Update the usable incoming number after checking that information. When they arrive, remove them from incoming before adding usable pieces to sellable stock.
