eliminated sales velocity??

[yesplasticfree]

Why, in the name of God's great green earth, would you eliminate a KEY reporting metric from one of your inventory reports WITHOUT TELLING YOUR CUSTOMERS OR PROVIDING ANY ALTERNATIVE. The new inventory sell-thru report is absolutely useless. It was barely useful before, but at least included sales velocity data, so we could see at a quick glance roughly how much of a product/item we sold per day/week/month, and estimated when we'd run out. Now? Gone. And AI support's only suggestion is that I create a custom report, export the data, and perform calculations myself. Are you kidding me right now? What on EARTH could you possibly be thinking? This is insult to the injury of the rollout from a couple months ago that completely changed the way items were added/created and which resulted in MORE work for the end user. Terrible. Terrible terrible terrible.

I've never really used reporting (perhaps I should) but I tagged an Admin to take a look at this

Thank you for flagging this to us @DinaLRosenberg!

@yesplasticfree I'm going to share this with our Reporting team to clarify with them. Once I have an update, I'll be sure to follow up on this thread.

Thanks again for sharing this feedback @yesplasticfree!

Our team confirmed that the data should still be there but they are under new heading. Just on what you mentioned:

- Items sold per day/week/month: you should still be able to check for "units sold" and should have the ability to filter by the time period that works best for you, instead of being limited by the default. 

- Sell out date: this is replaced with Days of Stock Remaining, which should have the same information (today + days of stock remaining = sell out date)

Completely understand this is a big change and the new groupings might not work for you. If possible, could you share a bit more on how you use the sales velocity metric in a way that is different from the units sold metric? If you have more specific feedback on how the information is organised in the report, I can share that with our team as well.
