# Cash-out Schedule

> See the cash you'll need for reorders, and when, over the weeks ahead

The **Cash-out Schedule** spreads your reorder recommendations across the weeks ahead by *when each order should be placed*, so you can see the cash you'll need to lay out and plan for it - rather than being surprised by a big purchase. Open it from **Replenishment → Cash-out schedule**.

It's the forward-looking, financial companion to [Reorder recommendations](/user-guide/replenishment/reorder-recommendations): the same buy list, laid out on a calendar of spending.

## How it's worked out

For every SKU that needs reordering, Stockful already knows two things:

* **How much to spend** - the quantity to order × the item's unit cost (the same figure as the reorder buy list)
* **When to order** - the projected stockout date **minus** the supplier lead time, so stock arrives before you run out

Each order's spend is then bucketed into the week it should be placed.

## Reading the page

* **Summary** - three headline numbers for the whole horizon: **total to order** (the cash across the window), **orders** (how many SKUs), and **units**.
* **Spend by week** - a bar per week showing what you'll lay out then. Empty weeks mean nothing is due. Hovering a bar shows that week's spend, the running cumulative, and SKU count.
* **Weekly table** - the same data as rows: week starting, SKUs, units, spend, and a **cumulative** running total, so the last row is your total commitment over the horizon.

## Controls

* **Location** - scope the schedule to a single location or all locations.
* **Horizon** - how far ahead to plan: 8, 12, 26, or 52 weeks.

<Note>
  Two rules worth knowing: an order whose order-by date has **already passed** folds into this week (it's due now), and orders due **beyond the horizon** are excluded - so the total is the cash needed *within* the window you're viewing, not lifetime.
</Note>

<Tip>
  Lead time is what sets each order's timing. Configure it in [Forecasting settings](/user-guide/forecasting), with per-product overrides for suppliers that are faster or slower than your default.
