Shopinvader Product Stock Forecast
This module exports the forecasted stock quantities for each product. This data can be used by the frontend to compute virtual stocks at any given date.
The stock forecast data is a list of planned stock variations, like so:
[ {"date": "2021-12-01T08:00:00", "qty": 10}, {"date": "2021-12-02T10:00:00", "qty": -1}, {"date": "2021-12-03T15:00:00", "qty": -4}, {"date": "2021-12-04T11:00:00", "qty": 5}, ]
This data can be used by aggregated and used by the frontend to compute the virtual stock of a product at any given date.
For example, assuming the initial qty_available is 10, and that today is 2021-12-01 00:00:00, we can infer the following:
- After 2021-12-01 08:00:00, stock will be 20
- After 2021-12-02 10:00:00, stock will be 19
- After 2021-12-03 15:00:00, stock will be 15
- After 2021-12-04 11:00:00, stock will be 20

Configuration
On the Shopinvader Backend, enable the Stock Forecast.
Optionally, you can set a Stock Forecast Horizon in days to limit the number of days to forecast.
Warning
The shopinvader_product_stock module will let you use a different field other than qty_available to export the current stock.
The forecast may not make sense if you don’t have the proper stock to start with, so it’s recommended not to use a different field there.
Known issues / Roadmap
It may be a good idea to implement a product_stock_forecast_interval setting, to round and group forecasted lines.
