So I buy quantity of 1 which will potentially put 100 in inventory -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Purchase order minimum and packing units From: Rishi Solanki <rishisolan...@gmail.com> Date: Tue, September 04, 2018 2:12 am To: ofbizuser <user@ofbiz.apache.org> Hi Frank, As shared by Suraj, I'm up for using the quantity UOM over marketing package. Also Agreement is best suited for the minimum order amount. So I would go with Suraj's suggestion. HTH! Rishi Solanki Sr Manager, Enterprise Software Development HotWax Systems Pvt. Ltd.
