Order Number ~ Min Order ~ MPQ?

When I generate a Purchase Order, I get everything listed as far as what I need...I can't seem to figure out what goes under Order Number...is this what the company I go through uses as the Number for that specific product? Is so I saw that under supplier I can enter a Reorder No...is this the same thing? Also with that in mind, under Supplier Items Supplied, there is also a Min Order, and MPQ...I can't figure out what those do exactly?

Hi Vince Minimum Order Is useful for any item on which the supplier has imposed a minimum ammount on the qty ordered.

Therefore if you enter a min order of 120 for lollypops, when you raise a PO and include lollypop in the PO the qty ordered will default to 120.

MPQ = Master Pack Quantity. So if you want to order a lollypop but the supplier only delivers lollypops in a bag of 40 the MPQ = 40.

Moreover, when you create a PO and order one lollipop it will automatically update the qty ordered to 40. As soon as you order 41 it will auto update qty to 80. And so on.

NB If you enter a figure in both min order and MPQ it will default to the min order if it is greater than the MPQ. So if you ordered a lollypop qty ordered would default to 120.
