Three simple ways to classify your stock
FSN, ABC and XYZ sound like jargon, but each is just a simple way to sort your inventory so you know where to focus. Used together, they tell you what to reorder, what to push, and what to clear.
FSN: Fast, Slow, Non-moving
FSN sorts every item by how quickly it sells:
- Fast — sells regularly; keep it well stocked.
- Slow — moves occasionally; watch it.
- Non-moving — barely sells; this is where dead stock and blocked cash hide.
ABC: by value
ABC sorts items by how much they contribute to your revenue. A items are your top earners (manage them closely), B are moderate, and C are the many small-value items. It stops you from spending equal attention on a ₹50 item and a ₹5,000 one.
XYZ: by demand consistency
XYZ sorts items by how predictable their demand is. X items sell steadily (easy to plan), Y vary by season, and Z are unpredictable. This helps you decide how much buffer stock to hold.
Putting it together — and letting AI do it
Doing this by hand across thousands of garment SKUs is impractical. SAHAY AI, inside the JS1 Software app, runs FSN, ABC and XYZ classification on your stock automatically and shows the results in plain language — so you act on them instead of calculating them.
