Definition

What an inventory dashboard is

An inventory dashboard is one screen that shows what stock you hold, what it is worth and how fast it sells. The main version, often called an inventory management dashboard, is built on four numbers: value, units, turns and days of supply.

Four core numbers
Value, units, turns and days of supply.
Problems at both ends
What is about to run out, and what has stopped selling.
One valuation method
So the totals match the ledger.

The metrics

The metrics an inventory dashboard is built from

Ten numbers. Most depend on a decision made before the chart: which valuation method, which sales period, what counts as movement and what counts as an order shipped in full. Open each one to see the data it needs.

Stock value
How much cash is sitting in the warehouse?
What the data needs
Units on hand times a cost, with one valuation method used throughout. FIFO and weighted average give different totals for the same stock, and a board that mixes them cannot match the ledger.
Inventory turns
How many times does the stock sell through in a year?
What the data needs
Cost of goods sold divided by average inventory over the same period. Using the closing balance instead of the average makes a seasonal business look efficient in January and idle in November.
Days of supply
How long will current stock last?
What the data needs
Units on hand and a recent sales rate for each product at each site. A company-wide rate hides the site about to run out while another holds a year's stock.
Stockout risk
What is about to run out?
What the data needs
Reorder point, supplier lead time and open purchase orders. Without open orders, you reorder stock already on its way, which turns a stockout report into overstock.
Aged and slow-moving stock
What is not selling, and for how long?
What the data needs
A receipt date for each batch and a last-movement date. The record's last-modified date is not movement: a stock count updates every row without anything leaving the building.
Inventory accuracy
Does the system count match the shelf?
What the data needs
Stock count results against system quantities, by location, over a period. Adjustments posted without a reason hide where the gap comes from.
Fill rate
What share of orders ship in full, first time?
What the data needs
Order lines with ordered and shipped quantities and a due date. A backorder that ships in full later is still a miss on the day it was due.
Sell-through rate
How much of what came in has sold?
What the data needs
Units received and units sold for the same products over the same period. Counting transfers between sites as sales inflates it at the sending site.
Carrying cost
What does it cost to hold stock, on top of buying it?
What the data needs
Average stock value over the period, plus the costs of holding it: storage, insurance, losses and the cost of the cash tied up. Leave out the cost of cash and slow stock looks free to keep.
Supplier lead time
How long does a reorder take to arrive?
What the data needs
Purchase order dates and delivery dates per supplier and product, over enough orders to show the range. Using the promised lead time instead of the real one sets every reorder point too low.

FAQ

Inventory dashboard questions

Last reviewed 1 October 2026 against the template catalogue.

What should an inventory dashboard show?

What you hold, what it is worth and how fast it sells, then the problems at both ends. The five above split that up: the inventory management dashboard is the everyday view, valuation follows the money, the tracking dashboard catches what is about to run out, aged inventory catches what has stopped selling, and the warehouse dashboard compares sites.

What KPIs should an inventory dashboard track?

Stock value, inventory turns and days of supply are the core three, with stockout risk and aged stock as the warning signs. Then inventory accuracy, fill rate, sell-through, carrying cost and supplier lead time. The list above shows all ten, with the data each one needs.

How do I build an inventory dashboard?

Start with one question, usually what to reorder or what is tying up cash. Then follow five steps.

Connect the stock system and sales history: the ERP or warehouse system for what you hold, and orders or invoices for what sells.
Agree the definitions once: one valuation method, one sales period for days of supply and what counts as movement.
Check the totals against the last stock count before anyone reads the board.
Build the board around value, units, turns and days of supply, with the problems below: products below reorder point and stock that has stopped selling.
Set a refresh schedule and share it with every site, so the board shows this morning's stock, not last week's export.

What is the difference between an inventory dashboard and a warehouse dashboard?

An inventory dashboard is about the stock: what you hold, what it is worth and what to reorder. A warehouse dashboard is about moving it: goods in, goods out and how fast stock turns. The warehouse dashboard above is the second kind. The other four are the first.

Where does the stock data come from?

The ERP or warehouse system, usually combined with a purchasing spreadsheet and sales data. Mammoth has 100+ tested connectors, and can also connect to anything with a REST API. Combining stock with sales is what turns a stock list into days of supply.

How often should it refresh?

It depends which of the five. Valuation and aged stock are month-end questions, so overnight is plenty. Reorder points and warehouse activity are worth refreshing as often as your plan allows. See plans and refresh rates

Can warehouse and store staff see it without a licence?

Yes. Viewers are unlimited and free on every Mammoth plan, including the free one, so every site can have its own view at no extra cost. Only the people who build dashboards count as users.
