Items - Order Minimum

Enter the minimum amount of this item to produce. When the system creates a planned order for this item, it is for a quantity no less than the amount in this field. The system uses the Order Minimum in conjunction with the Order Multiple (see “Items - Order Multiple” for more information) value. If the demand quantity is less than the order minimum, the system creates the planned order for the order minimum value. If the order minimum value is less than the demand quantity, the system adds order multiples to the order minimum value until the planned order quantity is greater than or equal to the demand quantity.
