Key points
- On hand inventory is offset by any corrections and thereby reduces the total availability to sales channels
- Product issues or location processes can result in higher correction quantities
What it measures
Total inventory quantities that have been corrected.

When to use this metric
- Monitor corrected quantities arising from rejections and short picks at fulfilling locations
- Assess inventory inaccuracy issues by locations/products
How to interpret
- Good performance: Low levels of correction quantities
- Potential issues: High levels of corrections potentially indicate inventory discrepancies and/or trends by product/location
- Benchmark guidance: Lowering correction quantities has a direct impact on lowering rejection rates
