    Wondering if anyone has the background calculation information for the Average Utilization in report IC182? It does not exactly appear to be the equivalent of average daily usage. All I can seem to find in my Google searches is the same as in the user manual below. Any help on how the Average Utilization is calculated would be most appreciated. Thank you!

      According to KB article 1195461...

      Average (Requisition) Utilization is the average per order calculated by summing the total number of items ordered in a date range and dividing by the number of requisitions.  Average Daily Utilization is the average per calendar day in the date range specified.  The IC182 report displays the Average (Requisition) Utilization.  The Average (Requisition) Utilization is the value used in the formula to calculate the recommended par level.
