 Prior to mSupply v7.12, when ordering or reporting on suggested ordering, you could simply tell mSupply to ignore stock that was going to expiry in three or four months time. mSupply would then lower it's stock level and order according to usages.
-However due to popular demand with mSupply v7.12 we have tried to do a better job of predicting stock wastage due to expiry. Using the consumption data that we have, we have travelled into the future and worked out the likely wastage stock. This page describes the workflow.
+So previously if you asked mSupply to ignore stock that is likely to expire within the next six months while ordering or reporting, then mSupply would simply reduce the Stock on hand of the items by taking out the six months expiring stock as un-usable and then created a order based on the reduce stock. This is highly inaccurate as mSupply just removes the six months expiring stock instead of trying to workout if the stock can be dispensed in a timely manner.

 The Suggested ordering report now has a new/updated expiry filter checkbox : //Exclude stock that will expire within 3 months of projected consumption date//

 However we now have 6 months starting from July 2024 till the end of December 2024 where we don’t have any stock, so mSupply will suggest a immediate order of :   6 * 50 =300 to cope with the 12 months starting from `1/1/2024`
+mSupply has effectively time travelled into the future to work out the **Effective Stock on hand (SOH)** and the order will be carried out based on this and not the current stock on hand.
+===== New Columns on Suggested order reports and changes =====
+Now the suggested ordering reports will have two new column :
+  * Effective SOH  (Stock on Hand) : From above this is the stock quantities that can be used before they expire.
+  * Expiring stock : This is the stock quantity that can’t be used due to predicted expiry and cut-off date.
+The `Effective Month of Stock` is now calculated from the  `Effective SOH` and not from the `Stock on Hand`. The `Suggested order` is now calculated from the  `Effective SOH` and the `Effective Month of Stock`.

+===== Generating a Purchase order and Tender =====
+The same logic is now applied when generating a purchase order or a tender. Like with the reports, we can ask mSupply to calculate potential stock wastage and order an appropriate quantity.
