Let the Advanced Inventory Utility estimate inventory levels using any of the following options:

Seasonal - Use this option for seasonal items. This option will adjust minimums and maximums when sales fluctuate based on the time of the year.
Linear - Use this option if the sale of item tends to increase or decrease in a linear fashion. This method should be used when items increase or decrease in a consistent manner and do not fluctuate in a seasonal manner.
Average - Select this option if sales are somewhat consistent during the sales life of the product. This method calculates the minimum and maximum values based on the average sales in history.
Best Fit - (RECOMMENDED) By selecting this option the system determines the best Prediction Type based on sales history. The system will try to predict the amount of sales for the past few months using each one of the models listed above. The prediction results for each type is compared to the actual sales in the past period to determine the best fit. The Best Fit option should be used unless the user wishes to restrict the automated calculation process.
No Prediction - Select this option to disable the automatically setting and manually set the minimum and maximum values. This option disables the automated feature.
