Sažetak
Maximum inventory in the warehouse represents upper limit of the quantity of goods that must not be exceeded in a certain period of time. It is a quantity, which is still economically justified in the relation of the costs of storage, order costs of new stock and the capability of meeting demands of consumers. Holding maximum inventory is justified in the case when suppliers are unreliable, where delays are possible, if production and customer orders oscillate during the year. Companies insure themselves from shortages of goods by holding inventory levels. Maximum inventory in the supply chain could be found in every phase. There are several methods to calculate maximum inventory rate. This paper presents influence of maximum inventory orders on supply chain by calculating maximum inventory in the phase of distribution. By knowing the amount of maximum inventory it is possible to optimize the logistics processes in the phase of distribution, so the total disorders in supply chain will be reduced.
