Beam provides built-in analytics and dashboards that give you a clear picture of your inventory health, item trends, and recent activity. All data is presented visually so you can make informed decisions quickly without exporting to external tools.
Stock health dashboard
The Stock Health dashboard provides a high-level overview of your inventory status with the following key metrics:
- Stock health score An overall score representing the health of your inventory, based on stock levels across all items.
- In stock rate The percentage of items that have sufficient stock on hand.
- Low stock items The number of items that have fallen below their minimum stock threshold.
- Out of stock items The number of items with zero stock remaining.
- Overstocked items The number of items that exceed their maximum stock threshold.
💡
Check the stock health dashboard regularly ideally at the start of each day to catch potential issues before they affect your operations.
