Set to False for automatic calculation,else manual input of base.
ordering_delay
logical,Default is FALSE,if TRUE, orders are delayed one period.
shortage_cost
shortage cost per unit of sales lost
inventory_cost
inventory cost per unit.
ordering_cost
ordering cost for every time an order is made.
Value
a list of two date frames, the simulation and the metrics.
Details
The Function takes a demand vector, mean of demand ,sd,lead time and requested service level to simulate and inventory system,
orders are lost if inventory level is less than requested demand, also ordering is made at
day t+1, metrics like item fill rate and cycle service level are calculated based on a
normal distribution.
the base is calculated automatically based on the mean demand and standard deviaiton. every period the order is exactly as the sales.
