Weekly To-Do List
Quick Answer: The Weekly To-Do List appears at the top of the Ask Mo page and shows the action items Mo has identified for your business this week — such as stockout risks, overdue POs, low inventory alerts, and sales surges. Click Ask Mo next to any item for Mo's full explanation and recommended next steps.
What is the Weekly To-Do List?
The Weekly To-Do List is Mo's proactive agenda for the week. Each time you open Ask Mo, Mo reviews your live inventory positions, open purchase orders, and recent sales activity, then surfaces a prioritised list of items that need your attention.
Rather than starting from a blank prompt, the To-Do List gives you a clear starting point — the things Mo has already flagged as urgent or worth investigating before they become problems.
Action Item Types
Mo surfaces four types of action items on the Weekly To-Do List.
🚨 Stockout Risk
Mo flags SKUs that are projected to run out of stock before your next replenishment arrives. These are items where your current on-hand inventory, combined with expected sales velocity, puts you at risk of hitting zero.
Example: "3 SKUs are at risk of stocking out within the next 14 days."
Click Ask Mo to see:
Which SKUs are affected and their projected stockout dates
Whether an inbound PO is already in place — and whether it will arrive in time
Mo's recommended action: expedite an existing PO, place a new order, or reallocate stock across locations
📬 POs to Chase
Mo identifies open purchase orders that are overdue, approaching their expected delivery date without a confirmed status, or haven't had a recent update. These are POs that may need a supplier follow-up to confirm they're on track.
Example: "2 purchase orders are past their expected delivery date."
Click Ask Mo to see:
The specific POs flagged and their original expected delivery dates
Which SKUs and quantities are affected
Suggested next steps, including draft supplier follow-up language if needed
📦 Low Inventory — Confirm POs
Mo highlights SKUs where stock is running low and checks whether a purchase order is already in place to cover projected demand. If no PO exists, or if the inbound quantity looks insufficient, Mo flags it here.
Example: "5 SKUs have low inventory with no confirmed inbound PO."
Click Ask Mo to see:
Current on-hand stock versus projected demand for each flagged SKU
Whether existing POs cover the shortfall
Whether a new order needs to be placed — and at what quantity
📈 Sales Surge — Investigate
Mo detects SKUs where sales velocity has spiked significantly above the forecast or recent baseline. A surge can mean a campaign is overperforming, an unexpected channel spike, or a viral moment — and it may require quick action to avoid a stockout.
Example: "2 SKUs are selling 40% above forecast this week."
Click Ask Mo to see:
Which SKUs are surging and by how much
Whether current inventory can sustain the elevated velocity
Whether Mo recommends pulling forward any replenishment orders to keep up with demand
