Abstract
A facility for analyzing ordering trends for an item is described. Based upon an historical ordering activity for the item, the facility projects future ordering activity for the item. The facility compares the future ordering activity projected for the item to inventory in the item. Based upon this comparison, the facility determines when future ordering activity is expected to exhaust inventory in the item.
