Where is your critical level (threshold for reorder) value held? I would expect to have something with that value around to trigger the reorder.
I'm not even sure what role your "batch" means unless that is the name of an item (drug or other specific consumable)
The critical level is set as 20% of the min level.
Batch means the production batch for the drugs in the hospital. For example, the sample site hospital has 2 batches per day for restocking the drugs at 8am and 6pm.
