# Reports for Bulk Order Management

The reports available in the Bulk Coop section are ideal for enterprises on the OFN platform, such as buying groups, who use the [Group Buy feature](https://guide.openfoodnetwork.org/basic-features/products-1/group-buy-for-bulk-ordering).

There are four reports in this section are:

|                 | Use                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |

## Example: Bulk Co-op Suppliers Report

This report will show the following information:

* Did customers order enough of a product to justify ordering the bulk size from the supplier?
* How much extra product are customers willing to purchase to help the group reach the bulk size threshold (if [Group Buy](https://guide.openfoodnetwork.org/products-1/group-buy-for-bulk-ordering#enabling-group-buy-for-a-product) is enabled)
* How many bulk sizes are required to meet customer demand?
* If the bulk size is ordered, how much stock will be left over.
* How many customers will be disappointed if this product isn’t ordered?

See the example below for an illustration of how the Bulk Co-op Totals by Supplier report can be used:

Example 1: Where the bulk ordering quantity has been reached:

Example 2: where the bulk order quantity has not been reached:

![Bok Choy](https://791054635-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9rgk4wEweX_zxXIzmW%2F-Lm42XLqo4KpLY0-_CcM%2F-Lm4B1BIG4FRhKT0VVcI%2FBok-Choy.png?alt=media\&token=798ba9aa-2a6e-4117-ae0f-9e7c3ae5ec0e)

* *Note the ‘Bulk Co-op Allocations’ report is similar in function to this report, but shows each customer’s order individually, rather than the cumulative total across all customers.*
