must be purchase together. i.e., sold it lots of five = order in increments of
5.
v Minimum Order Quantity—this allows
you to say I want the customer to buy at least so many of this. i.e., I want to sell at least 2 of these
products = a minimum order quantity of 2.
Supplemental— Examples:
1.
If
the increment is set to five and quantity is set to 2… what is the result? They have to buy at least 2 but they have to
buy in increments of 5 to meet both criteria they would have to by at least 5.
2.
Let’s
reverse this, increment set to 2 and minimum quantity of 5… what do you
think? Since they have to buy at least 5
and they can only buy it sets of 2. 6
would be the minimum number they would have to purchase.
