How it is computed
Section titled “How it is computed”- The module reads your active subscriptions in Ciklik.
- It keeps those whose next payment date falls within the chosen period.
- It adds up the quantities of their products, per product and per combination.
- It compares the total with the available quantity of each product in PrestaShop.
Products added as upsells to the next order are not counted. The computation covers at most 2,000 active subscriptions.
Read the result
Section titled “Read the result”Four counters at the top of the page:
- Active subscriptions: the number of active subscriptions read.
- Renewals in period: those whose next payment falls within the period.
- Distinct products: the number of rows in the table.
- Stock alerts: the number of products with insufficient stock.
The Stock forecast table shows one row per product and combination: Product, Combination, Quantity needed, Current stock, Stock after (current stock minus quantity needed) and Status:
- Insufficient: stock after renewals is negative.
- Low: fewer than 5 units remain.
- OK: 5 units or more remain.
Products with an alert come first, then the others by increasing remaining stock. If no subscription renews in the period, the page shows “No renewals planned for this period.”.
