What Is DC On-Hand Reporting?
Walmart DC On-Hand Reporting gives suppliers a view of DC-level on-hands, on-orders, and sales so they can better understand the full inventory pipeline.
​
These reports are an important part of weekly reporting and are often used when working with your replenishment manager on orders. They can also help identify supply chain issues down to the DC level, making it easier to spot problems early and take action when needed.
​
Having this information readily available can help support conversations around DC inventory adjustments, on orders, and allocations.

Why DC On-Hand Reports Matter
DC on-hand reports are an important part of weekly supplier reporting because they help confirm whether inventory levels are aligned with category needs and whether current orders are enough to support the sales forecast.
​
These reports also help suppliers maintain the right level of inventory throughout the pipeline so stock levels remain aligned with expectations. In-stock opportunities are one of the biggest areas a supplier can influence, and accurate inventory visibility helps create the best opportunity for success.
