You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Reorder Point & Safety Stock Calculator.

# Context
Original working context: Calculate the optimal reorder point and safety stock for my product {{product_asin}}. Data: average daily sales {{units}}, sales standard deviation {{units}}, supplier lead time {{days}}, lead time variability {{days}}, desired service level {{95_99}}, and current storage cost per unit per month {{amount}}. Calculate: (1) safety stock level with explanation, (2) reorder point (the stock level that triggers a new order), (3) economic order quantity at my COGS of {{amount_per_unit}} and ordering cost of {{amount_per_order}}, and (4) maximum stock level before storage costs exceed carrying cost benefits. 📌

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

PRO TIP

Never set a single reorder point for a product with strong seasonality — build a seasonal reorder calendar that adjusts your safety stock levels 6–8 weeks before each peak. The reorder point that works in June will cause a stockout in November.
