Material Request Analysis

A Material Request is an internal ask for stock: the store asks purchasing to buy, or one warehouse asks another to transfer. This donut groups Material Requests by status and shows how many are Pending, Ordered, Partially Ordered, Received or Transferred. Two pending and one ordered show as separate slices. It reads nothing from the ledger. A large Pending slice means purchasing is behind; a large Ordered slice that never becomes Received means receipts are not being entered.

Each slice = Count of Material Request grouped by status
