Product classification-based product target inventory determination method and system

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of logistics, and in particular relates to a product classification-based product target inventory determination method and system. The method comprises the steps of obtaining historical sales volume data of a product, and determining a function distribution type of the historical sales volume data according to the historical sales volume data; taking the function distribution type as a distribution type of a target inventory recommendation function of the product; determining a target mean value of the target inventory recommendation function; determining a target standard deviation of the target inventory recommendation function; determining a target inventory recommendation function according to the target mean value and the target standard deviation; and obtaining a target service level, and determining a target inventory of the product according to the target service level and the target inventory recommendation function. The target inventory recommendation function capable of accurately predicting the future sales volume of the product is determined according to the historical sales volume data of the product, and then the corresponding replenishment volume is determined according to the target service level selected by a merchant, so that over-high inventory is avoided on the premise of ensuring that the target service level is reached, and over-high inventory maintenance cost is further avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of logistics, in particular to a method and system for determining product target inventory based on product classification. Background technique [0002] In the retail market, affected by the number of customers and each customer's demand for products, the number of products sold by merchants on a daily, weekly or monthly basis is characterized by high uncertainty. The product inventory of the merchant is limited for a period of time, and the product inventory needs to be replenished before the product inventory is exhausted, so as to avoid the situation that there is no product supply when customers have demand. Due to the high uncertainty of customer demand, if the merchant's replenishment volume is too high, there may be a problem of inventory backlog due to low customer demand, resulting in high inventory maintenance costs; if the merchant's replenishment volume is too low, there may be high customer de...
