In inventory analytics and reporting, the X-axis usually represents the timeline or time periods, such as days, weeks, or months, on graphs showing demand trends, stock levels, or order cycles. Correct interpretation of the X-axis data allows supply chain managers to identify seasonality, trends, or anomalies that impact inventory planning. Visualizing data with clear X-axis timeframes supports better forecasting, inventory turnover analysis, and decision-making for replenishment schedules.
