Your starting prompt.

Analyze [inventory] against [demand history] and [target cover] to identify slow moving and excess stock by SKU and location. Estimate units and recorded carrying value above the target, distinguishing seasonal stock, discontinuations and committed demand. Show data gaps and sensitivity to future demand assumptions. Prepare a disposition review with options for transfer or purchase adjustment; do not write off stock or change prices automatically.

Copy this starting point, then replace the placeholders with your own inputs.

Method and review

Keep the assumptions visible.

Align SKUs, locations, units and dated demand. Show lead-time and service-level assumptions, and flag missing or stale inventory rather than inventing stock availability.

For this task, check
