Create an indication when regular usage drops to 0

Today the business will change the material they use use without informing MIO user.

typical example is 

Part A was used and optimised historically was fine. 

Business has decided to change part B, and usage of A stops.

with Part A, the MIO user is left with stock levels, maybe Purchase Orders for replenishment, and is often unable to implement rundown strategies, get an understanding to change BIC and LH down.

we are seeking to see clearly when regular usage changes to 0 so we can manage

    Hi Michael,

    Great idea! We are investigating this. Complications we have are around if a material has 2/month history and drops to 1 then its a 50% decrease but may only cost $10 so not much change. Can we spend some time with you at the user group to discuss this idea more? Feel free to add mor detail against this idea on how you think or even better if you want to have a call let us know and we will send an invite.


    Dylan.
