Formula Used

Current Available Units

Opening Stock + Received + Returned + Reworked − Sold − Damaged − Expired − Quarantined − Reserved

Inspection Coverage

(Inspected Units ÷ Received Units) × 100

Quality Release Rate

((Passed Units + Reworked Units) ÷ Inspected Units) × 100

Defect Rate

((Failed + Damaged + Expired) ÷ (Opening Stock + Received Units)) × 100

Blocked Stock Rate

((Reserved + Quarantined) ÷ Total Inflow) × 100

Inventory Turnover Ratio

Sold Units ÷ Average Inventory, where Average Inventory = (Opening + Closing) ÷ 2

Traceability Score

Average of inspection coverage, documentation completeness, scan accuracy, FIFO compliance, and storage compliance. Higher scores indicate stronger recall readiness and cleaner lot visibility.

FAQs

1. What does this calculator measure?

It measures batch availability, release performance, defect exposure, blocked stock, turnover, shelf-life remaining, financial value, and traceability readiness from one batch record.

2. Why are reserved and quarantined units removed from availability?

Reserved units are committed elsewhere, and quarantined units are blocked from normal issue. Removing both gives a truer view of usable inventory.

3. What is a good traceability score?

A score above 90% usually indicates strong documentation, scan discipline, FIFO control, and storage compliance. Lower values suggest recall or audit weakness.

4. Can this calculator support recall preparation?

Yes. The traceability score and blocked-stock indicators help identify whether lot records, movement visibility, and compliance controls are robust enough for recall response.

5. Why might the calculator show a negative available stock?

A negative result means stock movements exceed inflows. It usually points to incorrect issue data, double counting, or missing receipts and returns.

6. How is inventory turnover useful in quality control?

Turnover shows how quickly a batch is moving. Slow turnover can increase expiry risk, storage load, and quality exposure for aging stock.

7. Should reworked units be counted as usable?

Only if reworked units successfully pass release criteria. This calculator assumes reworked units return to usable stock after successful correction.

8. When should I export the results?

Export after validating your entries. CSV is useful for spreadsheets, while PDF is better for audits, meetings, approvals, and record sharing.
