The Issue statistics form displays management information about purchase requirements for stock parts. The form shows the monthly cumulative issues of parts over the past 24 months, the monthly average, and the standard deviation (the deviation in relation to the average). You could use the form, for example, for parts with the stock control method 'Order point method'. You can calculate the average usage of a part based on the monthly average, and you can calculate the minimum stock using the standard deviation.

Note: All months before or after the calculated period of 24 months are marked with "x". Any months showing a value of '0' have been calculated, but do not have any issues or receipts.
