{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">Use Case:</mark> A supply chain manager wants to understand which products are often purchased together to improve bundling strategies. Additionally, a warehouse needs to calculate the months of supply for each item to ensure stock is maintained at optimal levels. Lumi allows these advanced KPI calculations in real time using simple language.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:orange;">Note:</mark> These types of calculations often need to be configured and are not "out of the box" like simple aggregations above. Proper setup and business context are necessary.
{% endhint %}

> **Typical Prompts:**
>
> 1. *"Which items are most frequently ordered together over the past 6 months?"*
> 2. *"Calculate the outbound cases per hour for each warehouse in Q2 2024."*
> 3. *"What is the average lead time for deliveries, and which supplier has the longest lead time?"*
>
> **Example Output: Which items have the highest months of supply?**
